Abstract

|
|
|
For last 3 years (1973-1975), Double contrast knee arthrography has been performed in 40 patients in the Radiologic department of the National Medical center. The results were as followings: 1) Sex distribution was male 25, female 15, and age ranged from 10 to 49. High incidence was noted in the 3rd decade. 2) In the majority, clinical symptom was knee joint pain. 3) The lesion was more frequent on the Right knee than on the left. 4) lateral meniscus tear (19 cases) was more frequent than the medical one (3 cases). 5) Double contrast Knee arthrography can disclose those lesions of the menisci, the articular cartilages, the synovium, and ligaments. 6) Diagnostic accuracy of double contrast knee arthrography is more than 95%, but authors obtained about 80%, probably due to unskillful technique and inaccurate interpretation. Batter technique and interpretation are necessitated.
