Knee pain MENISCI: There is a horizontally oriented posterior horn, body, and anterior horn of the lateral meniscus.There is blunting of the inner free edge of the medial meniscus suggesting presence of a radial tear.This intrasubstance degeneration of the medial and lateral menisci.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: There is severe cartilage loss of the medial compartment, particularly the anterior femoral condyle with full-thickness cartilage loss. Underlying degenerative marrow signal is noted. There is a moderate cartilage loss of the lateral compartment, particularly the tibial plateau. Underlying degenerative marrow signal is noted.A small full-thickness articular cartilage defect is seen in the lateral patellar facet. There is moderate thinning of the articular cartilage of the trochlea as well which is superimposed upon full-thickness loss of the articular cartilage of the lateral trochlea.LIGAMENTS: Anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments are intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: No significant abnormality noted.ADDITIONAL
1. Tears of the medial and lateral menisci.2. Moderate osteoarthritis of the knee with areas full thickness articular cartilage loss, worst in the medial compartment.
