Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate and analyze the role of magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of medial meniscal posterior root tears, including the normal variations in meniscal anatomy that may resemble a meniscal tear, and identifying the causes or nature of posterior medial meniscal root tear(degenerative versus traumatic) and correlate the results with the standard reference knee Arthroscopy.In addition to identifying and estimating the suspected cases of meniscal extrusion by making MRI with stress varus overloading simulating weight bearing.

Conditions

  • Medial Meniscus, Posterior Horn Derangement

Interventions

RADIATION

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the knee

After clinical assessment, all the patients will examined by Magnetic Resonance Imaging to diagnose the medial meniscal posterior root tear,and the suspected cases of meniscal extrusion will make MRI using the knee coil for varus stress Overloading simulating weight bearing

PROCEDURE

Knee Arthroscopy

Correlate all the magnetic resonance imaging results with the Knee Arthroscopy
