An increased posterior slope of the medial and lateral meniscus posterior horn is associated with anterior cruciate ligament injuries

The purpose of this study was to measure slope of both the medial and lateral posterior horn of the meniscus, and its contribution to the overall resulting posterior tibial slope (bone and meniscus combined slope) in ACL-intact (ACLI) and ACL-deficient (ACLD) knees.
