A member asked:
Grade ii degenerative (mucoid degeneration) mr signal changes at posterior horn of medial meniscus. does this imply a tear? surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: If the signal does not communicate with the articular surface it is not torn but you have degenerative changes which can lead to a tear in the future.
