Knee pain MENISCI: There is mild irregularity of the free edge of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus which may indicate mild fraying but we see no discrete meniscal tear.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: There is moderate osteoarthritis of the knee with multiple tricompartmental partial and full-thickness cartilage defects and degeneration. A prominent subchondral cyst is noted in the femoral trochlea centrally underlying a full-thickness cartilage defect. Additional edema type signal is noted within the lateral femoral condyle and medial tibial condyle which is favored to be degenerative in nature. There are tricompartmental osteophytes.LIGAMENTS: No significant abnormality noted. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: No significant abnormality noted.ADDITIONAL
Moderate tricompartmental osteoarthritis with perhaps mild fraying of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus without discrete meniscal tear.
