37-year-old female patient with knee pain. Question of meniscus tear. Due to the patient's body habitus, a high-resolution knee coil could not be used. Alternative coils were instead used which result in suboptimal image quality. Furthermore, several sequences are rendered suboptimal due to motion artifact.MENISCI: Evaluation of the menisci is limited, however, there is blunting of the posterior horn and body of the medial meniscus with low signal intensity in the medial gutter below the peripheral fibers of the body of the medial meniscus likely representing a displaced flap of meniscal tissue. The lateral meniscus is grossly intact.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: Evaluation of the articular cartilage is limited. We see no full-thickness fluid intensity cartilaginous defects. Bone marrow signal intensity is unremarkable.LIGAMENTS: The cruciate and collateral ligaments are intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: The extensor mechanism is intact. Mild edema along the patellar tendon and medial retinaculum is nonspecific.ADDITIONAL
Extremely limited study showing findings compatible with a displaced flap tear of the medial meniscus.
