Reason: acl tear suspected History: laxity on exam, swelling MENISCI: There is a complex tear of the posterior horn and body of the medial meniscus with avulsion of the posterior root attachment and a flipped fragment in the posterior intercondylar notch. The lateral meniscus is intact.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: There is mild diffuse grade 2 chondral loss in the medial and lateral tibiofemoral compartments. There is grade 1/2 chondromalacia in the patellofemoral compartment. There are no focal chondral defects. Bone marrow signal is within normal limits. There are mild tricompartmental osteophytes.LIGAMENTS: There is disruption of the proximal aspect of the anterior cruciate ligament, compatible with complete tear. The posterior cruciate ligament is intact. The medial collateral ligament and lateral collateral ligament complex are intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM: Extensor mechanism is intact.ADDITIONAL
1.Complete rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament.2.Complex tear of the posterior horn and body of the medial meniscus with avulsion of the posterior root attachment.3.Small to moderate joint effusion and synovitis.
