MR Imaging after Meniscal Surgery

-stress fractures with surrounding bone marrow edema are most commonly seen in the medial femoral condyle and medial tibia secondary to radial or complex tears of the medial meniscus; the bone cut off from its blood supply by the subchondral fracture is at risk to develop osteonecrosis, therefore a follow-up MRI is typically useful in this setting to ensure fracture healing and exclude the development of osteonecrosis
