Knee pain MENISCI: Again seen is horizontal tearing of the medial meniscus extending from the posterior horn into the body and portion of the anterior horn. The tearing appears more extensive than the prior examination. The lateral meniscus is intact.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: There is full-thickness degeneration of the articular cartilage of the medial femoral condyle particularly overlying the area of the posterior meniscus. The extent of cartilage loss appears relatively similar to the prior examination. The articular cartilage of the lateral and patellofemoral compartments is thinned but without discrete full-thickness defect. There is redemonstration of a tiny ossicle within the posterior joint space just posterior to the PCL.LIGAMENTS: The cruciate and collateral ligaments are intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: No significant abnormality noted.ADDITIONAL
1. Progression of medial meniscal tear.2. Full-thickness cartilage loss of the medial compartment which appears similar to the prior exam. The articular cartilage of the lateral and patellofemoral compartments is thinned but without full-thickness defect.
