Abstract:
[Objective]To explore the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for articular cartilage lesions after bone bruise of distal femur under arthroscopy.[Method]Articular cartilage lesions of 29 cases of distal femur bruises diagnosed by MRI were examined under arthroscopy,12 cases of them combined with medial and lateral meniscus injury,17 combined with anterior cruiciate ligament rupture.[Result]The distal femur articular cartilage lesions examined under arthroscopy were corresponding to MRI findings.The lesions showed by arthroscopy were in direct proportion to MRI.These lesions were classified into Ⅰ-Ⅳ degrees.[Conclusion]Arthroscopic examination showed correspondent result to MRI findings for articular cartilage lesions.Sometimes MRI couldn't deliver the severity of cartilage lesions because of instrument factors.Arthroscopy is considered as the golden standard of evaluation for articular cartilage lesions after bone bruises.
