To define the surgical anatomy of the meniscotibial ligament complex of the pediatric medial and lateral menisci and their relation to the proximal tibial physis and posterior joint capsule. Fourteen pediatric cadaveric knee specimens (aged 3 months to 11 years) were dissected to clarify the relation of the posterior knee capsule, the meniscus, and the meniscotibial ligament complex. Metallic markers were placed marking the meniscotibial ligament capsular attachment on the proximal tibia.
