Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of MRI diagnosis in tangential osteochondral fracture.Methods 1 7 patients with tangential osteochondral fracture were examined by MRI,and the related signs were analyzed,including the subluxation or disloca-tion of patellofemoral joint,the injury or fracture of bone and cartilage,the injury of meniscus,the injury of medial patella retinacu-lum and ligament,the effusion articular capsule.we investigated the role of X-ray film,CT,MRI,compared with arthroscopy.Re-sults MRI showed subluxation of patellofemoral joint(Ⅰtype 12 cases、Ⅱtype 3 cases、Ⅲ type 1 case)in 1 6 cases,1 case had mild move of patella.All of 1 7 cases were found fracture in bone or cartilage of the inferior medial part of patella and the anterior lateral part of lateral femoral condyle.All cases were found the injury of medial patella retinaculum(Ⅰtype 7 cases、Ⅱtype 9 cases、Ⅲ type 1 case),3 cases were found the injury of MCL,2 cases were found the injury of ACL.3 cases were found the injury or tear in anteri-or horn of meniscus.1 1 cases were found articular capsule filling with simple effusion,5 cases were found articular capsule filling with hemorrhagic effusion,1 case was found articular capsule filling with hemorrhagic effusion and fat granule.Conclusion MRI can clearly show tangential osteochondral fracture and its accompanying changes:the subluxation or dislocation of patellofemoral joint, the injury or fracture of bone and cartilage,the injury of meniscus,the injury of medial patella retinaculum and other ligament,the articular capsule effusion.
