Reason: medial meniscus tear History: Left knee pain MENISCI: The lateral meniscus appears intact. The medial meniscus appears intact.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: There is near full-thickness to full-thickness cartilage degeneration along the medial femoral condyle above and just anterior to the posterior horn of the medial meniscus with delamination. There may also be mild cartilage loss along the medial femoral condyle above the anterior horn as well. The remainder of the articular cartilage is unremarkable.LIGAMENTS: The cruciate and collateral ligaments appear intact. There is mild edema along the superficial band of the medial collateral ligament which is nonspecific, but could represent a mild sprain in the correct clinical context.EXTENSOR MECHANISM: The extensor mechanism appears intact.ADDITIONAL
Degeneration of the articular cartilage of the medial femoral condyle and other findings as described above. We see no meniscal tear.
