PURPOSE: The aim of the present study was to assess the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of bucket-handle tears of the knee menisci, determining the sensitivity and specificity of the imaging for each of the signs typical of these tears. MATERIALS AND METHODS: MR examinations of 495 patients suffering from knee traumas were assessed retrospectively. Forty-eight patients had arthroscopically-proven bucket-handle tears of the meniscus. MR examinations were performed using a 0.5-T superconducting magnet, with T1-weighted spin-echo (SE) and gradient-echo (GE) T2*-weighted sequences. Imaging findings used for the diagnosis were: a) double posterior cruciate ligament sign; b) flipped meniscus sign; c) presence of a displaced fragment of the meniscus in the intercondylar notch, visible in coronal and axial images; d) truncated triangular shape of the peripheral non-displaced portion of the meniscus, visible in coronal images. RESULTS: A total of 43 out of 48 bucket-handle tears of the meniscus were correctly diagnosed at MR, thus overall MR accuracy was 98%. In 12 (28%) cases three signs were present simultaneously the double posterior cruciate ligament (sensitivity 28%, specificity 99%, accuracy 93%) + the displaced fragment in the intercondylar notch (sensitivity 69.8%, specificity 98.7%, accuracy 96.2%) + the truncated triangular shape of the peripheral portion of the meniscus (sensitivity 74.4%, specificity 98%, accuracy 96%). In 18 (42%) cases two signs were present together the displaced fragment of the meniscus + the truncated triangular shape of the peripheral portion of the meniscus. In 13 (30%) cases only one sign was presenting two cases the truncated triangular shape of the peripheral portion of the meniscus and in 11 cases the flipped meniscus sign (sensitivity 25.6%, specificity 93.4%, accuracy 87.5%). No statistically significant differences were found comparing the results for tears of the medial meniscus with those for the lateral meniscus. CONCLUSIONS: MR imaging is highly accurate in diagnosing bucket-handle tears of the menisci due to its ability to identify a displaced fragment of the meniscus in the intercondylar notch or flipped over the anterior horn of the meniscus of origin. We speculate that bucket-handle tears not found by MR imaging are cases where the meniscus was displaced after MR examination. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the sensitivity and specificity of reported MRI signs in the evaluation of bucket-handle tears of the knee. DESIGN AND PATIENTS: A retrospective analysis of 71 knee MR examinations that were read as displaying evidence of a bucket-handle or "bucket-handle type" tear was performed. We evaluated for the presence or absence of the absent bow tie sign, the coronal truncation sign, the double posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) sign, the anterior flipped fragment sign, and a fragment displaced into the intercondylar notch. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated relative to the gold standard of arthroscopy. RESULTS: Forty-three of 71 cases were surgically proven as bucket-handle tears. The absent bow tie sign demonstrated a sensitivity of 88.4%. The presence of at least one of the displaced fragment signs had a sensitivity of 90.7%. A finding of both the absent bow tie sign and one of the displaced fragment signs demonstrated a specificity of 85.7%. The double PCL sign demonstrated a specificity of 100%. The anterior flipped meniscus sign had a specificity of 89.7%. CONCLUSIONS: Bucket-handle tears of the menisci, reported in about 10% of most large series, have been described by several signs with MRI. This report gives the sensitivity and specificity of MRI for bucket-handle tears using each of these signs independently and in combination. MRI is shown to be very accurate for diagnosing bucket-handle tears when two or more of these signs coexist. 相似文献

Meniscal bucket handle tears: a retrospective study of arthroscopy and the relation to MRI 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

In this study, we aim to evaluate the arthroscopic findings of meniscal bucket handle tears and to correlate them with the proposed MR imaging signs of meniscal bucket handle tears suggested in the literature. Thirty-six patients who had a diagnosis of bucket handle tear in arthroscopy, in either medial or lateral meniscus, were included in our study (32 males and 4 females). Meniscal tears were evaluated in arthroscopy according to Dandys classification. The MRIs were retrospectively analyzed regarding the following findings: absence of bow tie sign, presence of double posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) sign, double anterior horn sign, flipped meniscus sign, disproportional posterior horn sign, and fragment within the intercondylar region. Locked types I and II fragment of medial meniscus and half-length, whole-width and whole length–half-width fragment of lateral meniscus in arthroscopy were basically correlated with fragment within the intercondylar notch and absent bow tie signs in MRI. We did not find the double PCL sign in any of the patients with a lateral meniscal bucket handle tear. The most common signs in MR images of meniscal bucket handle tears were the fragment in the notch sign and the absent bow tie sign. They were observed with equal frequency of 88.8%. The presence of double PCL sign, double anterior horn sign, flipped meniscus sign, disproportional posterior horn sign were less common (41.66, 33, 25, and 27.7%, respectively). We conclude that the presence of at least two of the six MRI signs should be regarded as highly suggestive for bucket handle tears of menisci. 相似文献

MR imaging of meniscal bucket-handle tears: a review of signs and their relation to arthroscopic classification 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Our objective was to review the MR imaging signs of meniscal bucket-handle tears and assess the relevance of these signs
to the arthroscopic classification of displaced meniscal tears. Forty-five menisci in 42 patients who had a diagnosis of bucket-handle
tear either on MR imaging or on subsequent arthroscopy (in which Dandy's classification of meniscal tears was used) were retrospectively
analyzed for MR imaging findings of double posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), fragment within the intercondylar notch, absent
bow tie, flipped meniscus, double-anterior horn, and disproportional posterior horn signs. Arthroscopy, which was considered
as the gold standard, revealed 41 bucket-handle tears (either diagnosed or not diagnosed by MR imaging) in 38 patients (33
males, 5 females). There was a stastistically significant male preponderance for the occurrence of meniscal bucket-handle
tears. Overall, sensitivity and positive predictive value of MR imaging for the detection of meniscal bucket-handle tears
were calculated as 90%. Common MR imaging signs of meniscal bucket-handle tears in arthroscopically proven cases of such tears
were the fragment in the notch and absent bow tie signs (98% frequency for each). Double-PCL, flipped meniscus, double-anterior
horn, and disproportional posterior horn signs, however, were less common (32, 29, 29, and 27%, respectively). An arthroscopically
proven bucket-handle tear was found in all patients who displayed at least three of the six MR imaging signs of meniscal bucket-handle
tears. The presence of three or more MR imaging signs of meniscal bucket-handle tears is highly suggestive of this condition.

We report the second known case of bicompartmental bucket-handle tears of the medial and lateral menisci and the first documented case of the bucket-handle tears occurring simultaneously following trauma, which occurred after a motorcycle accident. Both bucket-handle fragments were displaced into the intercondylar notch. An anterior cruciate ligament tear was also present. Coronal images demonstrated four structures in the intercondylar notch: the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments and the medial and lateral bucket-handle meniscal fragments. 相似文献

A bucket-handle tear of the meniscus is a vertical or oblique tear with longitudinal extension toward the anterior horn in which the inner fragment is frequently displaced toward the intercondylar notch with resultant mechanical locking of the knee joint. A precise MR diagnosis requires identification of the centrally displaced fragment because the peripheral nondisplaced component may have only a subtle truncated or foreshortened appearance that may escape detection. Eighteen consecutive cases of displaced bucket-handle tears of the medial meniscus diagnosed by MR had a characteristic low-signal band extending across the joint and projecting over the medial tibial eminence. The posterior portion was parallel and beneath the posterior cruciate ligament on both sagittal and coronal images. Arthroscopy confirmed the presence and location of the displaced fragment in all 18 cases. Awareness of this characteristic MR finding may increase the sensitivity of MR imaging in the diagnosis of bucket-handle tears of the medial meniscus. 相似文献

Among the MRI signs of bucket-handle tears of medial meniscus, double posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) sign denotes a low
signal band anterior and parallel to the PCL, which looks like another PCL in MR images. If the bucket-handle fragment subsequently
tears at the anterior horn, the torn meniscal substance can be displaced to the posterosuperior region of the PCL, and looks
like another PCL behind the original PCL. We propose the lesion be called the “posterior double PCL sign” in contrast to the
ordinary double PCL sign. We present a case showing the posterior double PCL sign. 相似文献

MR imaging of meniscal malformations of the knee mimicking displaced bucket-handle tear 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We report two cases of patients with lateral meniscal malformations of the knee that were found incidentally. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of both cases showed a fragment-like meniscus structure located in the intercondylar notch, very similar to the "fragment in the intercondylar notch sign" observed in displaced bucket-handle tear. Arthroscopic examinations revealed a ring-shaped lateral meniscus in one case, and "flipped-over" lateral meniscus in the other. In the latter, a similar lateral meniscal malformation was observed contralaterally at MR arthrography. 相似文献

Several characteristic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signs of meniscal bucket-handle tears are well known and widely used.
This case report presents a new MRI sign of a meniscal bucket-handle tear. A 17-year-old boy visited our hospital because
of the pain in his left knee. Preoperative MRI on sagittal view showed a tear in the anterior horn of the medial meniscus
and a displaced fragment of the medial meniscus in front of the original anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), which looks like
another ACL. Under arthroscopic examination, the bucket-handle medial meniscus displaced parallel to the ACL was observed.
A longitudinal tear was extended from the anterior horn to the posterior horn of medial meniscus. To our knowledge, this new
MRI sign of bucket-handle tear, “the double ACL sign”, has not been previously reported. Level of evidence V. 相似文献

An MRI diagnosis of the Wrisberg variant discoid lateral meniscus should be considered in patients presenting with an anteriorly
flipped posterior horn fragment without a definable peripheral rim. We present four cases discovered on arthroscopy that were
thought to resemble bucket-handle tears on preoperative MRI. Posterior hypermobility poses a surgical challenge as excessive
debridement without careful attention to underlying meniscal morphology may lead to further instability. Although this diagnosis
can be difficult to make on MRI, alerting the orthopedic surgeon preoperatively may influence repair technique and meniscus
conservation. 相似文献

Reversed double PCL sign: unusual location of a meniscal fragment of the knee observed by MR imaging
A 36-year-old woman with tears of the anterior cruciate ligament and medial meniscus received a meniscectomy. The MR images obtained prior to the partial meniscectomy showed a bucket-handle meniscal tear with centrally displaced fragment lying anterior to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), representing a "double PCL sign"; however, after the meniscectomy, MR images demonstrated a fragment in the space posterior to the PCL where no structure is generally recognized except for the ligament of Wrisberg. This article reports a "reversed" double PCL sign, caused by inadequate surgical clearance of a bucket-handle tear of the medial meniscus.

Meniscal tears with fragments displaced in notch and recesses of knee: MR imaging with arthroscopic comparison 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
PURPOSE: To retrospectively evaluate magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for the depiction of meniscal tears with partially detached meniscal fragments displaced in the intercondylar notch or in the meniscal recesses of the knee. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The institutional review board required neither its approval nor informed patient consent for the retrospective review of patient data; however, informed patient consent had been obtained before the MR imaging examinations were performed. The presence of meniscal tears with notch and recess fragments was determined at MR imaging and at subsequent arthroscopy in 101 consecutive knees to determine the value of MR imaging for the depiction of these lesions. Initial reports were reviewed to evaluate results of initial interpretations. MR images were retrospectively analyzed to determine the value of several MR image signs for the detection of displaced tears with notch or recess fragments. RESULTS: At arthroscopy, 37 (41%) of 91 torn menisci had partially detached fragments. Twenty-six torn menisci had notch fragments, and 14 had recess fragments; three torn menisci had one notch and one recess fragment each. At initial MR image analysis, 38 (36%) of 105 torn menisci had partially detached fragments. Twenty-eight torn menisci had notch fragments, and 13 had recess fragments; one torn meniscus had two recess fragments, and three torn menisci had one notch and one recess fragment each. At initial analysis, sensitivities and specificities were, respectively, 69% and 94% for detection of tears with notch fragments and 71% and 98% for detection of tears with recess fragments. At retrospective analysis of sagittal MR images, the presence of at least one sign indicative of meniscal tear with a notch fragment had sensitivities and specificities, respectively, of 65% and 78% for observer 1 and 77% and 73% for observer 2. The presence of at least one sign indicative of a meniscal tear with a recess fragment had sensitivities and specificities, respectively, of 64% and 77% for observer 1 and 64% and 76% for observer 2. CONCLUSION: Meniscal tears with notch and recess fragments are frequently seen at arthroscopy and can be depicted at knee MR imaging with moderate sensitivity and high specificity. 相似文献

Reversed double PCL sign: unusual location of a meniscal fragment of the knee observed by MR imaging
A 36-year-old woman with tears of the anterior cruciate ligament and medial meniscus received a meniscectomy. The MR images obtained prior to the partial meniscectomy showed a bucket-handle meniscal tear with centrally displaced fragment lying anterior to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), representing a "double PCL sign"; however, after the meniscectomy, MR images demonstrated a fragment in the space posterior to the PCL where no structure is generally recognized except for the ligament of Wrisberg. This article reports a "reversed" double PCL sign, caused by inadequate surgical clearance of a bucket-handle tear of the medial meniscus. 相似文献

The majority of knee magnetic resonance imaging examinations are performed for meniscal evaluations. Displaced meniscal tears including free meniscal fragments are an important diagnosis as most of these tears are unstable and require surgical intervention. Magnetic resonance imaging can be an invaluable tool in the arthroscopic search for a free meniscal fragment. In addition to the commonly seen bucket-handle tears flipped into the intercondylar notch, it is important to be aware of less common locations where menisci may be displaced. First, we briefly summarize the basic meniscal anatomy and some of the more common tear patterns. We then investigate the broad range of meniscal migration. 相似文献

Objectives
To describe a type of meniscus flap tear resembling a bucket-handle tear, named a “hemi-bucket-handle” tear; to compare its imaging features with those of a typical bucket-handle tear; and to discuss the potential therapeutic implications of distinguishing these two types of tears.Materials and methods
Five knee MR examinations were encountered with a type of meniscus tear consisting of a flap of tissue from the undersurface of the meniscus displaced toward the intercondylar notch. A retrospective analysis of 100 MR examinations prospectively interpreted as having bucket-handle type tears yielded 10 additional cases with this type of tear. Cases of hemi-bucket-handle tears were reviewed for tear location and orientation, appearance of the superior articular surface of the meniscus, presence and location of displaced meniscal tissue, and presence of several classic signs of bucket-handle tears.Results
A total of 15/15 tears involved the medial meniscus, had tissue displaced toward the notch, and were mainly horizontal in orientation. The superior surface was intact in 11/15 (73.3%). In 1/15 (6.7%) there was an absent-bow-tie sign; 6/15 (40%) had a double-PCL sign; 14/15 (93.3%) had a double-anterior horn sign.Conclusion
We describe a type of undersurface flap tear, named a hemi-bucket-handle tear, which resembles a bucket-handle tear. Surgeons at our institution feel this tear would likely not heal if repaired given its predominantly horizontal orientation, and additionally speculate the tear could be overlooked at arthroscopy. Thus, we feel it is important to distinguish this type of tear from the typical bucket-handle tear. 相似文献18.

Purpose: Meniscal tears associated with displaced fragments are clinically significant. We propose the "disproportional posterior horn sign" as a supportive criterion to identify a posterocentrally displaced meniscal fragment on MR imaging studies. If the meniscal posterior horn in the central portion appears larger than that in the peripheral section, it is considered positive for "disproportional posterior horn sign".Material and Methods: MR images obtained in 42 patients with 43 lesions, confirmed to have displaced meniscal tears, were included in this study. The MR images were retrospectively evaluated for the presence of the "disproportional posterior horn sign", as well as the other known signs.Results: The "disproportional posterior horn sign" was seen in 9 (20.9%) of 43 lesions, including 1 lateral discoid meniscal tear, 5 lateral meniscal tears and 3 medial meniscal tears. Five of them also had other signs of a displaced meniscal fragment. However, the remaining 4 cases only exhibited the "disproportional posterior horn sign". For the other MR signs, the "absent bow tie sign" was detected in 40 (93%) of 43 lesions, the "flipped meniscus sign" in 27 (62.8%) of 43 lesions, the "double posterior cruciate ligament sign" in 17 (39.5%) of 43 lesions and the "notch fragment sign" in 22 (51.2%) of 43 lesions.Conclusion: The "disproportional posterior horn sign" is helpful in demonstrating a posterocentrally displaced meniscal fragment, especially when other characteristic signs are unremarkable or absent. 相似文献

Sagittal MR images of the knee: a low-signal band parallel to the posterior cruciate ligament caused by a displaced bucket-handle tear 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A low-signal band parallel and anterior to the posterior cruciate ligament has been noted on sagittal MR images of the knee in some patients with other evidence for medial meniscal tears. It was hypothesized that this low-signal band represented the mesially displaced fragment of a bucket-handle tear. To verify this, we retrospectively reviewed MR and arthroscopic findings in 54 consecutive patients. Arthroscopy showed a bucket-handle tear of the medial meniscus in seven patients and was considered diagnostic. Sagittal MR images were reviewed without knowledge of the arthroscopic results. The presence of a curvilinear low-signal band above the tibial cortex anterior, inferior, and parallel to the posterior cruciate ligament was identified on MR images in all seven of the patients in whom the presence of a bucket-handle medial meniscal tear was confirmed by arthroscopy. Our findings suggest that a low-signal band anterior and parallel to the posterior cruciate ligament on sagittal MR images of the knee is caused by a mesially displaced bucket-handle tear of the medial meniscus. 相似文献

Magnetic resonance diagnosis of meniscal tears in patients with acute anterior cruciate ligament tears 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of meniscal tear in patients with acute anterior cruciate ligament tears. METHODS: Magnetic resonance images obtained from 41 patients imaged within 6 weeks of injury who had acute anterior cruciate ligament tears identified at arthroscopy were retrospectively reviewed for meniscal tear. RESULTS: With MR imaging the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for diagnosing meniscal tears in the presence of acute anterior cruciate ligament tears were 71%, 93%, and 88%; for the lateral meniscal tears were 57%, 100% and 85%; and for the medial meniscal tears were 100%, 88%, 90%. All false negative cases (n = 6) involved the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus. CONCLUSION: In the presence of acute anterior cruciate ligament tears, MRI imaging has relatively low sensitivity for detecting meniscal tears due to missed tears in the lateral meniscus. 相似文献
