Open publisher page 22 citations

Abstract

A diskoid medial meniscus is a rare finding occurring in approximately 0.3% of the general population. Bilateral medial diskoid menisci are even less common, with only three other cases appearing in the literature. This may be the first reported case of bilateral medial diskoid menisci diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging and verified at arthroscopy.
