Update on imaging of the discoid meniscus.
Skeletal Radiology 2022 May
Discoid menisci represent a range of morphological meniscal variants, most commonly involving the lateral meniscus. Clinical presentation ranges from an asymptomatic incidental finding to snapping, pain, swelling and reduced range of knee movement. Symptomatic presentation of discoid menisci is usually due to meniscal tears and instability resulting from abnormal meniscal morphology and ultrastructure, with absent peri-meniscal ligamentous and meniscocapsular attachments characteristic of the Wrisberg sub-type. This article reviews the current classification systems of discoid menisci, gross morphological characteristics of each sub-type and ultrastructure. Clinical presentation, arthroscopic findings and indirect radiological diagnostic criteria are described, as are the MRI findings of normal and pathological discoid menisci. Current concepts of surgical management and outcomes of the discoid meniscus are also briefly discussed.
