This is an interpretation by the KNEEguru editor of this medical publication paper which reviews the progress in tissue engineering of the meniscus up to 2004.
The meniscus of the knee has a complex internal anatomy that is proving challenging to bioengineers and scientists in their attempts to engineer a replica that reproduces both the structure and the function of the meniscus.
