Reason: eval for patellofemoral pathology History: L knee pos patellar apprehension test MENISCI: No significant abnormality noted.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: The articular cartilage appears normal without fluid filled defects. There is mild edema within the superolateral corner of Hoffa's fat pad which can be associated with patellar tracking disorders and/or patellar instability. The Insall-Salvati ratio is 1.2, indicating borderline patella alta. The superior aspect of the femoral trochlea appears slightly shallow, which is suggestive of mild dysplasia. There is slight lateral tilt of the patella. The TTTG distance is approximately 1.6 cm, which is borderline. LIGAMENTS: The ACL, PCL, MCL, and LCL complex are intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: The quadriceps and patellar tendons appear normal. ADDITIONAL
Slight lateral tilt of the patella with borderline Insall-Salvati ratio and TTTG distance and perhaps mild femoral trochlear dysplasia.
