A 35-year-old female patient with previous left knee anterior cruciate ligament repair for a skiing injury presented six years later with a traumatic lateral patellar subluxation. Radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging of her left knee joint showed an ossific structure in the region of the lateral meniscus. This was diagnosed as a meniscal ossicle and confirmed during successful arthroscopic excision. The imaging features of meniscal ossicles are reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
