Pain MENISCI: Similar minimal increased signal and fraying along the tibial surface of the body and posterior horn of the lateral meniscus is again observed. The menisci are otherwise preserved throughout, specifically no additional findings to suggest interval tearing. The above mentioned finding again most likely represents postsurgical changes from a previously described partial meniscectomy.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: Again previously observed heterogeneity of the articular cartilage most pronounced in the lateral compartment and along the weightbearing portions of the condyle are again observed. Specifically no progression and mild improvement is suggested, likely representing interval continued improvement from a prior surgical microfracture. Again no specific full-thickness articular cartilage abnormality is observed throughout, other than the thinning and heterogeneous signal in the lateral patellar facet.LIGAMENTS: No significant abnormality noted. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: Similar mild patella alta, unchanged.ADDITIONAL
Scattered postsurgical changes and degenerative findings, however no new interval significant new abnormalities. See details provided
