Fibrocartilage makes up most of the menisci of the knee, the pubic joint, and the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) of the jaw.
They are called Menisci. Also called shock abrosbing pads.
Fibrocartilage is an extra strong type of cartilage, it is made up of white fibrous tissue and cartilaginous fibres which are arranged in an orderly manner. It also contains an abundant supply of Type I Collagen. This combination of fibres gives fibrocartilage its strong, flexible and elastic properties.Because of its strength and durability, fibrocartilage is found in areas of the body which are subjected to the most strain and impact such as the spine, knees and pelvis, where it provides support and strength and acts as a shock absorber.
Fibrocartilage (i.e Fibroelastic cartilage)
In specific areas yes. For example articular cartilage found in the knee and elbow is replaced by fibrocartilage when damaged as it lacks the ability to regenerate without the covering perichondrium
