Female, 38 years old. Knee pain MENISCI: There is intrasubstance degeneration within the posterior horn and body of the medial meniscus with mild focal increased signal intensity within the undersurface fibers of the meniscus suggesting mild fraying, but we see no fluid-filled or otherwise unstable meniscal tear.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: We see no fluid-filled cortical defects. Bone marrow signal intensity is normal.LIGAMENTS: There is thickening and increased signal intensity within the proximal fibers of the anterior cruciate ligament suggesting mucoid degeneration. The posterior cruciate ligament and collateral ligaments appear normal. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: The quadriceps and patellar tendons appear normal.ADDITIONAL
1.Mild degeneration and undersurface fraying of the medial meniscus but no findings to suggest an unstable meniscal tear.2.No articular cartilage defects are evident.3.Mucoid degeneration of the anterior cruciate ligament.4.Nonspecific edema within the deep soft tissues adjacent to the posterior margin of the distal femoral metaphysis.5.Thickening of the inferior patella plica of questionable clinical significance.
