Left knee pain MENISCI: No significant abnormality noted.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: Scattered areas of full-thickness loss are identified within the medial femoral condyle anteriorly. This is superimposed upon mild diffuse thinning of the articular cartilage. Similar diffuse thinning of the lateral compartment is also noted. There is full-thickness loss of the lateral patellar facet with areas of partial-thickness and full-thickness loss of the femoral trochlea. Marrow signal reflective of a hematopoietic reconversion is noted within the distal femur.LIGAMENTS: No significant abnormality noted. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: No significant abnormality noted.ADDITIONAL
1. No evidence of meniscal pathology.2. Severe articular cartilage loss with full-thickness defects involving the medial femoral condyle anteriorly. Additional areas of cartilage loss are detailed above.3. Moderate joint effusion.
