The complexity of knee injuries, particularly meniscus tears, has driven medical science to continually seek more effective treatment methodologies. Among the most promising developments in recent years is the application of stem cell therapy, a cornersto

Knee operations on the meniscus cartilage are a frequent procedure on a particularly complex part of the human body. Empa researchers want to provide an improved basis for clinicians in order to reduce the risks of the operation. Using 3D models based on

With all of the fantastic imaging techniques available in healthcare today, clinicians are capable of diagnosing tissue and joint deformities using non-invasive imaging with remarkable accuracy. However, one vexing question remains: why are some patients

The all-inside suture technique can represent a suitable and reliable solution for suturable meniscal tears, even for patients over 40. Preserving the meniscus and restoring patients? functionality allows patients to return to their daily activities and p
