Magnetic resonance imaging for irreducible posterolateral knee dislocation

Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of an irreducible knee dislocation can help physicians evaluate associated bone and ligamentous lesions. However, caution should be taken when interpreting the images because the capsuloligamentous interposition seen in irreducible knee dislocations may be misdiagnosed as a meniscal lesion.
