Abstract
Abstract
Context ACL injury continues to be the largest single problem
in orthopedic sports medicine. MRI has become the prime
diagnostic tool of the various knee pathological and anatomical
variability conditions.
Aim To test the integrity of the new combined method for
assessment of tibial plateau anatomic variables using conventional
MRI.
Settings and design Retrospective control study.
Methods We evaluated the medial tibial plateau slope
(MTPS), lateral tibial plateau slope (LTPS), and medial
tibial plateau depth (MTPD) in ACL-injured group of
patients (156) and non-ACL-injured control group (93)
using MRI scan. Inclusion criteria for ACL-injured
group—as surgically confirmed—were isolated ACL injury,
while inclusion criteria for non-ACL-injured group
were minor trauma, bruises, etc.
Statistical analysis used Student’s t test and ICC were used. A
