ABSTRACT
Many types of meniscal anomalies have been reported. The authors encountered two cases of anomalous insertion of the anterior horn of the medial menisci to the lateral femoral condyle which ran along the course of the anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) without connecting ACL. These anomalies were noted during arthroscopic surgery of the ipsilateral knee for a torn discoid meniscus, and a patellar fracture. A 34-year-old woman had a horizontal tear of the lateral discoid meniscus. We performed arthroscopic partial meniscectomy of the inner torn portion of the lateral discoid meniscus and contoured it to resemble a normal meniscus. An anomalous insertion of the medial meniscus was found on examination of the joint during surgery. A 32-year-old man had a patellar fracture and we performed reduction under arthroscopy and internal fixation with cannulated screws. The same anomalous insertion of the medial meniscus was found on examination of the joint during surgery. We report the cases with review of literature.
