Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the "cartilage black line sign," specifically focusing on a T2 dark cartilage lesion called a trochlear cleft found in knee MRIs.
- A review of 1,300 MR exams revealed that only 25 individuals (1.9%) had trochlear clefts, mostly young athletes with an average age of 28 years.
- The findings indicated that trochlear clefts are uncommon in younger, active individuals and may represent incomplete cartilage fissures, with the potential to progress to more severe cartilage damage in rare cases.
Article Synopsis
- * Researchers reviewed MRI scans of 286 patients who underwent shoulder surgery, identifying and categorizing the location of cysts by two different readers to check for agreement in findings.
- * Results showed that patients with cysts in the lesser tuberosity were usually older and had a higher incidence of subscapularis tendon tears, suggesting these cysts could indicate underlying tendon problems, especially in older adults.
Tarsal navicular stress fractures are injuries more commonly observed in athletes involved in sprinting and jumping sports. Known risk factors for the development of navicular stress fractures include pes cavus, metatarsus adductus, limited subtalar or ankle motion, medial narrowing of the talonavicular joint, as well as a short first metatarsal. The presence of an os supranaviculare has yet to be described as a predisposing factor in the occurrence of navicular stress fractures.
