In meniscus replacement procedures anatomically correct fixation of the graft is one of the prerequisites for a successful outcome. An anatomical cadaver study was carried out to identify the insertion areas in the femur and tibia as well as the peripheral meniscus length. Ninety-two fresh knees from 46 human donors were included. The tibial insertions of the medial meniscus could be defined by bony landmarks. The peripheral length was 111 +/- 11 mm for the medial and 110 +/- 13 mm for the lateral meniscus. Wrisberg's ligament was present in 76% of all knee specimens and Humphry's ligament could be found in 50%. The correlation between the right and left knee in the same individual was poor concerning the presence of the meniscofemoral ligaments and the size of the tibial meniscal insertions to bone.
