[Tear_14] Wrisberg Rip_Longitudinal-Vertical Tears -12

The sagittal images progress from lateral to medial and demonstrate the ligament of Wrisberg, passing posterior to the PCL and continuing into the superior margin of the peripheral meniscal tear segment created by the longitudinal tear of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus.
The torn ACL is seen on the sagittal views
Note the contusion bone marrow edema at the posterior lateral tibial plateau and lateral femoral condyle.

Axial image demonstrates the course of the ligament of Wrisberg, posterior to the PCL as it joins to the meniscal fragment peripheral to the longitudinal tear like this drawing.

We can see this separation between the meniscofemoral ligament and the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus with abnormal extension into in the posterolateral region, which represents a longitudinal tear accompanying an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
