Correlation between subcutaneous knee fat thickness and chondromalacia patellae on magnetic resonance imaging of the knee.
PURPOSE Chondromalacia patellae is a common cause of anterior knee pain in young patients and can be detected noninvasively with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The purpose of our study was to evaluate the correlation between subcutaneous fat thickness around the knee joint on axial MRIs as a surrogate marker of obesity, with the presence or absence of chondromalacia patellae. METHODS A ret...
متن کاملStudy of Coincidence of Hoffa’s Fat Pad Associated Injuries in Knee Traumas in Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Background and Objective: Hoffa’s fat pad injuries are often caused by acute direct and indirect trauma and chronic recurrent micro-trauma, and its disorders are associated with other traumas and injuries that have been less paid attention to in radiological studies. Therefore, this study was performed to evaluate the injuries associated with Hoffa’s fat pad injury in knee trauma using the diag...
متن کاملcorrelation between magnetic resonance imaging and arthroscopic findings in the knee joint
conclusions the clinical examination is an important and accurate diagnostic modality for evaluation of traumatic derangement of the knee joint. it is noninvasive, easy, available, and valuable diagnostic modality. the mri is an accurate diagnostic modality. it can be used whenever there is an uncertain indication for arthroscopy. however, costs have to be kept in mind, especially in patients w...
متن کاملReliability of clinical findings and magnetic resonance imaging for the diagnosis of chondromalacia patellae.
BACKGROUND This diagnostic study was performed to determine the correlation between anterior knee pain and chondromalacia patellae and to define the reliability of magnetic resonance imaging for the diagnosis of chondromalacia patellae. METHODS Fifty-six young adults (median age, 19.5 years) with anterior knee pain had magnetic resonance imaging of the knee followed by arthroscopy. The patell...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Relationship between Anterior Knee Pain and Chondromalacia Patellae and Patellofemoral Malalignment.
Objective The study aimed to investigate whether there is any association of anterior knee pain and knee function with chondromalacia stage and patellofemoral alignment in patients with anterior knee pain for over a month and with chondromalacia patellae (CMP) detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Materials and Methods We reviewed the medical records of 38 patients who underwent a kne...
