In rabbits, repair of incisions in the central part of the meniscus has been demonstrated after surgical excision of the peripheral rim. Healing took place via a highly cellular but relatively avascular fibrous tissue stroma which proliferated from the synovial margin and invaded along the cut edge of the meniscus. Suturing facilitated this healing process by providing stability and possibly by supplying bridges for synovial cells to migrate onto the meniscus. Transformation of fibrous tissue into fibrocartilage has also been observed.
在兔子身上，半月板周边边缘手术切除后，已证实半月板中央部分的切口能够修复。愈合过程通过高度细胞化但相对无血管的纤维组织基质进行，该基质从滑膜边缘增殖并沿半月板的切割边缘侵入。缝合通过提供稳定性并可能为滑膜细胞迁移到半月板上提供桥梁，促进了这一愈合过程。也观察到了纤维组织向纤维软骨的转化。
