A member asked:
What does apical truncation of the free edge of the body of the medial mensicus with some medial extrusion mean? this was seen on a knee mri?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probable tear.: It "sounds like" a description of a meniscal tear. I'd need the images to be certain, ask your doctor, if there is still confusion, ask him to review the case with the radiologist.
