Abstract: | BackgroundSeveral types of meniscal tear could be presented in both acute and chronic anterior cruciate ligament injury. The incidence of bucket-handle meniscus tears can be up to 30% of the overall meniscus tears cases. The case of both compartment (medial and lateral) bucket-handle meniscus is rarely occurred.CaseA case of both medial and lateral bucket-handle meniscus tears was reported in a male of 21 years old. The patient also had a chronic anterior cruciate ligament injury. The magnetic resonance imaging also showed a rare presentation of the triple-PCL sign with the sagittal view. Arthroscopic surgery with a meniscus repair and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction was performed on the patient.ConclusionsSeveral specific imaging signs including triple-PCL sign could be presented in a rare case of both medial and lateral bucket-handle meniscus tears. Recognition of this sign is important to have accurate preoperative diagnosis and proper treatment plan. |
