Editorial Commentary: Anteromedial Meniscofemoral Ligament of the Anterior Horn of the Medial Meniscus: I've Never Seen That Before; but Has It Seen Me?

Abstract

Although there is frequently an element of variability found in human anatomy, we tend to think of anatomic structures as following the pattern in which we, as surgeons, most frequently encounter them. Though it is possible that a variant pattern of a commonly encountered anatomic structure has "never been seen" by us as surgeons, the constant process of learning sometimes leads us to ask ourselves whether we have truly never encountered such a structure or condition before or whether we simply did not recognize it when it "saw us."
