Knee Is Synovial And Weight Bearing Joints. It Is The Ligamentous, Meniscal And Tendinous Systems That Provide Support For The Joint That Are Responsible For Its Stability. When Soft Tissues Of Knee Are Injured, Stability, Biomechanics Of Knee Are Disrupted. These Results In Unstability Of Knee. A Number Of Potential Reasons Include Traumatic Injuries, Infections, Congenital Anomalies Etc. The Most Common Cause In Young Population Is Sports Injuries. The Knee Is The Joint That Sustains The Most Injuries Due To Its Anatomical Structure, The Fact That It Is Subjected To External Pressures, And The Demands That It Must Fulfil In Order To Operate Properly [1,2]. Injuries In Ligaments Are Among The Common Injuries Of The Knee That Is Due To Contact Sport Hockey, Football, And Kabaddi. However, Rta Also Plays A Role. In Cases Of Knee Injuries, Anterior Cruciate Ligament Is Mostly Damaged, Which May Result In Instability And Discomfort [3,4]. As A Consequence Of The Instability That Is Caused By Acl Loss, Meniscii Tears May Be Caused By Trauma Or They Can Develop Over Time As A Result Of Instability. The Meniscii, The Cartilage Erosions In Knee Joint Are Commonly Accompanied With Injured Anterior Cruciate Ligaments That Have Been Present For A Long Time [5].
Aim And Objectives:
To Investigate And Compare Conclusions Of Physical Examinations, Diagnostic Imaging By Magnetic Resonance, And Arthroscopy Procedures To Better Understand The Damage Of The Knee Internally.
Materials And Methods:
A Prospective Study Was Done On 30 Patients At The Department Of Orthopaedics, Vinayaka Missions Medical College And Hospital, Salem. Patients Experiencing Knee Issues Such As Pain, Instability, Getting Locked, And Effusions. Patient Who Has Undergone An Imaging By Magnetic Resonance For Any Reason, With Suspected Derangements Of The Hinge Joint Internally, Patient With Long-Standing Hinge Joint Pain And Uncertain Hinge Joint Injury And Patient Within The Ages Range Of 18-60 Years Were Included In The Study.
Results: The Study Found A Highly Significant Difference Between The Mri Results And Arthroscopy Results For Pcl, Acl, Mm And Lm Injuries (P < 0.0001).
Conclusion:
A Thorough Clinical Evaluation And Mri Results Can Aid In Arthroscopy, Ultimately Benefiting The Patient. Arthroscopy Offers A More Accurate Diagnosis, And When Combined With Clinical Evaluation And Mri Results, It Provides A Comprehensive Understanding Of The Injury, Leading To Better Patient Outcomes.
