[Tear_20] Ramp lesion_Type 2: partial superior peripheral posterior meniscal hor

Ramp lesion type 2 is a peripheral partial thickness tear involving the superior margin of the posterior horn, where the torn fragment contains the intact meniscocapsular attachment to the posterior horn.

 

Linear vertical fluid signal reaching the superior articular surface of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus red-red zone.

(Partial thickness superior vertical tear through the posterior horn of medial meniscus, as manifested by linear vertical fluid signal reaching the superior articular surface.)

 

This tear pattern is thought to be more stable than a full thickness meniscocapsular tear

 

It is stable and can be diagnosed only by the trans-notch approach. Mobility at probing is low.
