30-year-old male with knee pain. Rule out ligamentous or meniscal injury. MENISCI: The medial and lateral meniscus appear intact.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: No full-thickness or near full-thickness articular cartilage defects are identified. There are tiny patellar osteophytes, but the articular cartilage is within normal limits. The bone marrow signal intensity is within normal limits. LIGAMENTS: The cruciate and collateral ligaments appear intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: The patellar tendon appears slightly thickened with intermediate signal intensity within its proximal fibers compatible with tendinosis. There are small spurs projecting from the proximal tibial metaepiphysis that result in mild mass effect on the undersurface fibers of the patellar tendon just proximal to its insertion on the tibial tubercle. We see no fluid signal intensity within the tendon itself to confirm a tear. The quadriceps tendon appears intact.ADDITIONAL
Patellar tendinosis of the left knee and other findings as described above.
