Photoelastic studies were performed to compare the effects of meniscectomy, longitudinal meniscal tear, and retention of the meniscal rim on the magnitude and distribution of the stresses in the medial compartment of the knee. The results are consistent with the concepts that the meniscus protects the articular cartilage of the knee from stress concentrations and that retention of a torn, undisplaced meniscus or the presence of an outer meniscal rim are preferable to the absence of the meniscus.
进行了光弹性研究，以比较半月板切除术、半月板纵向撕裂以及保留半月板边缘对膝关节内侧间室应力大小和分布的影响。研究结果与以下观点一致：半月板可保护膝关节的关节软骨免受应力集中影响，并且保留撕裂但未移位的半月板或存在半月板外缘比没有半月板更可取。
