introduction: scintigraphy has been considered as a useful tool in the assessment of meniscal tears. our objective was to assess the accuracy of single photon emission tomography (spect), using mri as the gold standard, in the diagnosis of meniscal tears. materials and methods: between january 2003 and february 2005, 45 patients were studied with spect and mri. results: the respective sensitivi...
The bucket-handle meniscal tear is a specific type of meniscal injuries which has specific signs on MRI. An attached fragment displaced away from the meniscus with any type of tear causes bucket-handle tear of the meniscus. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most commonly used diagnostic tool for meniscal injuries. We present a case of free medial meniscal fragment which mimics the disloca...
BACKGROUND Our aim was to examine the association between an expert clinician's impression of symptomatic meniscal tears and subsequent MRI in the context of middle-aged and older adults with knee pain. METHODS Patients older than 45 were eligible for this IRB-approved substudy if they had knee pain, had not undergone MRI and saw one of two orthopaedic surgeons experienced in the diagnosis of...
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is currently the modality of choice for detecting meniscal injuries and planning subsequent treatment. A thorough understanding of the imaging protocols, normal meniscal anatomy, surrounding anatomic structures, and anatomic variants and pitfalls is critical to ensure diagnostic accuracy and prevent unnecessary surgery. High-spatial-resolution imaging of the meni...
BACKGROUND Meniscal root tears present in many forms and can have profound consequences on the health of knee articular cartilage. While the biomechanics, natural history, and treatment of root tears have been increasingly investigated, the spectrum of meniscal root tear patterns observed during arthroscopic examination has yet to be defined and categorized. PURPOSE To establish a classificat...
This study aimed to determine the incidence of meniscal tears and describe the tear morphology and selected treatment in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. We also will discuss the potential market for future tissue engineering aimed at preserving meniscal function. A multicenter cohort of 1014 patients undergoing ACL reconstruction between January 2002 and Dec...
BACKGROUND The relation between knee meniscal structural damage and cartilage degradation is plausible but not yet clearly proven. OBJECTIVES To quantitate the cartilage volume changes in knee osteoarthritis using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and determine whether meniscal alteration predicts cartilage volume loss over time. METHODS 32 patients meeting ACR criteria for symptomatic knee...
Background and Aim: Meniscal flounceis a rare, wavy shaped folding along the free edge of the meniscus that observed in .MRI images. This is a feature of transient distortion of a normal meniscus but it can be regarded as a pseudo- meniscal tear. The aimof the currentstudy was to evaluate the incidence of this normal variant. Materials and Methods: A total number of1001 knee MRI images. were pr...
Although horizontal tears of the meniscus have historically been treated with partial meniscectomy due to poor vascularity within the tear, evidence suggests that repair of horizontal meniscal tears may be advantageous to partial meniscectomy. Furthermore, the addition of platelet-rich plasma has shown promise in improving meniscal healing. We present our technique of platelet-rich fibrin clot-...
INTRODUCTION Meniscal tear is thought to play a crucial role in onset as well as progression of arthritis. However, role of cytokine response to meniscal injury and resulting inflammation is not clearly understood. Because synovial fluid is juxtaposed to cartilage and serves as a biological connection between chondrocytes and synoviocytes, we chose synovial fluid analysis to ascertain biochemic...
