38-year-old male with knee pain, patellar tendon pain. Some sequences are limited by patient motion artifact.MENISCI: There is tearing of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus consisting of blunting of the free edge as well as a more linear horizontal component that extends to the tibial articular surface. There is slight blunting of the free edge of the body of the meniscus. The anterior horn appears intact. The lateral meniscus appears intact.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: There is subjective thinning of the articular cartilage of the medial compartment. The lateral compartment appears relatively spared. There are small cysts within the tibial plateau near the attachment of the PCL which are not necessarily of any clinical significance.LIGAMENTS: The cruciate and collateral ligaments appear intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: There is mild increased signal intensity within the undersurface fibers of the proximal patellar tendon which may represent minimal tendinosis but this is of questionable clinical significance.ADDITIONAL
1. Tearing of the medial meniscus as described above.2. Mild articular cartilage degeneration.3. Findings suggestive of minimal patellar tendinosis which is of questionable clinical significance.4. Nonspecific subcutaneous edema along the anterior aspect of the patellar tendon as described above.
