- An incision was made over the medial meniscus; a blunt dissection was then used to open the knee joint capsule and the mediomeniscotibial ligament (MMTL) was transected to destabilise the medial meniscus (Glasson et al. 2007).

- In this model transection of the mediomeniscotibial ligament (MMTL) results in a slowly progressing joint pathology and pain phenotype
