Tensile strength variables for the collateral ligaments were compared after excision of the meniscus in one knee, the corresponding meniscus in the contralateral knee of the same dog being intact. Removal of the meniscus was associated with a three-fold increase in initial laxity, two-fold for the lateral and three-fold for the medical ligament. The maximum tensile load uptake of the medial collateral ligament was reduced by more than 10 per cent after medial meniscectomy; the load uptake of the lateral ligament was not affected by lateral meniscectomy. It is proposed that tensile loads are distributed more favourably in the medial collateral ligament by the intact medial meniscus with firm capsular attachments than in the "normal" ligament after meniscectomy.
在切除一侧膝关节半月板后，对侧膝关节相应半月板保持完整的情况下，比较了侧副韧带的拉伸强度变量。切除半月板与初始松弛度增加三倍相关，外侧韧带增加两倍，内侧韧带增加三倍。内侧半月板切除术后，内侧副韧带的最大拉伸负荷吸收减少了10%以上；外侧半月板切除术对外侧韧带的负荷吸收没有影响。有人提出，完整的内侧半月板及其牢固的关节囊附着比半月板切除术后的“正常”韧带更有利于内侧副韧带分散拉伸负荷。
