Motion patterns of the menisci were analogous to those of the femoral condyle. Medial pivot motion of the femur caused the greatest posterior movement of the LM. Meniscal kinematics followed the femorotibial kinematics. Comprehension of meniscal kinematics in full knee ROM is important for understanding of injury mechanisms, planning meniscus transplant, and making postoperative care program for meniscus surgery.
