MSK MRI 2022. 9. 17. 08:03

The nondisplaced component of a flap tear may demonstrate a changing slope contour of its superior surface.

 

Criteria for diagnosis of a flap tear based on sagittal images include:

* A vertical tear encompassing the inner third of the meniscus,either coapted or noncoapted 

* Relative deficiency of the inner third of the inferior meniscal surface with associated blunting of the remaining inferior leaf 

* A blunted free edge of the meniscus with displaced meniscal tissue inferior to the periphery of the meniscus A change in the slope of the superior surface of the meniscus,indicating a change in the direction of the tear that creates the flap.
