The objective of this study was to evaluate the morphometric variations in human beings meniscus. For this, 40 menisci from 20 knees, previously dissected and preserved with Formaldehyde and/or glycerin solution, were utilized. In each meniscus, the following aspects were evaluated to check the width and thickness variations: outer circumference length and distance between posterior and anterior horns in three points (anterior, medium, and posterior part). With regard to the outer circumference length, there was no significant statistic difference between the medial and lateral meniscus. The distance between the anterior and posterior horns in the medial meniscus was significantly higher than that of the lateral meniscus. The lateral meniscus showed no significant difference regarding to the length between the anterior, medium, and posterior part, whereas the posterior part was wider in the medial meniscus. With regard to the medial meniscus length, the posterior part was thicker than the anterior and medium part. In the lateral meniscus, the medium part was the thickest followed by the posterior and anterior part, respectively. The meniscus morphometric findings are in accordance with studies on meniscus injuries.
