Knee Pathologies

The knee joint is made up of the femur, tibia and patella. Between the femur and tibia, there are two crescent-shaped fibrocartilaginous structures called menisci. This joint comprises the medial and lateral collateral ligaments as well as the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments. The study of each of them individually and together is what will lead us to providing the right treatment for each patient.

Equilae introduces a new concept to the world of knees: the Meniscus-Tibial-Popliteus-Fibular Complex

  At Equilae we are constantly working on different lines of research with the aim of improving the results obtained after a surgical procedure. Once again, the investigations carried out have borne fruit, giving rise to a recent publication, by means of the prestigious Arthroscopy journal, which shows the results of an anatomical and histological […]
