Abstract: A meniscus repair composition for application to a meniscus defect site to promote growth of new tissue at the meniscus defect site is provided. The composition comprises: from about 10 to about 50 percent by weight of allograft meniscus particles having an average particle size of from about 10 ?m to about 500 ?m; a carrier selected from the group consisting of sodium hyaluronate, gelatin, collagen, polyethylene glycol, glycerin, carboxymethylcellulose, dextrose, blood derivatives, aqueous solutions thereof, and mixtures thereof; and a curing agent. The curing agent may be the carrier where the carrier is cross-linkable. When introduced to a defect site in a meniscus and cured, the composition will not flow away from the defect site, and the composition is non-adhering to the defect site after it is cured.

Abstract: A meniscus repair composition for application to a meniscus injury to promote growth of new tissue at the meniscus injury site is provided. The composition comprises: from about 10 to about 50 percent by weight of allograft meniscus particles having an average particle size of from about 10 ?m to about 500 ?m; and a carrier comprising a solid fibrin web matrix. When introduced to a defect site in a meniscus, the composition is non-adhering to the defect site. A method for repairing a meniscus injury comprises administering a meniscus repair composition to the injury site.
