[Tear_18] Ramp lesion_Normal anatomy and mean length_02

The posterior meniscotibial ligament attachment to the PHMM had a mean length of 14.0 ± 5.4 mm at its insertion on the posterior tibia.
The posterior meniscocapsular attachment to the PHMM had a mean length of 20.2 ± 6.0 mm.

The dMCL had a broad, firm attachment to the midbody of the medial meniscus.
The dMCL meniscofemoral attachment blended with the POL meniscofemoral attachment posteriorly and with the anteromedial capsule anteriorly.
The mean length of the dMCL attachment on the medial meniscus was 14.8 ± 3.2 mm.

The meniscal attachment of the POL was a direct expansion of the posteromedial capsule (ie, the POL capsular arm) and was located directly between the posterior meniscocapsular attachment and the meniscofemoral dMCL attachment.
The POL meniscofemoral attachment length was 8.2 ± 2.1 mm.

The semimembranosus tendon had a fascial attachment to the posterior inferior margin of the medial meniscus (This semimembranosus-meniscal attachment branched from the anterior arm of the semimembranosus and was located between the posterior meniscotibial ligament and the meniscotibial POL attachments.
The mean length of the fascial attachment of the semimembranosus to the meniscus was 9.2 ± 2.1 mm

this semimembranosus tendon was cut and reflected.
