📌 Pellegrini-Stieda disease

: refers to intraligamentous or periligamentous calcification and ossification that can occur with chronic injuries of the medial collateral ligament (MCL). 

 

✅ Schematic Representation

This condition can present with different appearances and locations around the MCL, as depicted in the provided schematic:

I. Beak-like appearance with inferior orientation and femoral attachment

 II. Drop-like appearance with inferior orientation, parallel to the femur III. Elongated appearance with superior orientation, parallel to the femur 

IV. Beak-like appearance with both inferior and superior orientation, attached to the femur

✅ While most patients with Pellegrini-Stieda disease are asymptomatic, a small proportion may experience medial knee pain.
