There is a popular misconception that the meniscus is avascular and that tears of the meniscus do not heal. Over the years this notion has gradually been dispelled as being incorrect and the fact that the periphery of the meniscus is in fact vascular has been accepted. Attempts to resuture this particular structure in the knee have, in some cases, proved to be very successful.
有一种普遍的误解,认为半月板无血管,半月板撕裂不会愈合。多年来,这种观念逐渐被证明是错误的而被摒弃,并且半月板周边实际上有血管这一事实已被认可。在某些情况下,尝试对膝关节中的这一特殊结构进行重新缝合已证明是非常成功的。
