Abstract

The study was aimed to evaluate the correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and arthroscopic surgical findings among the patients with recurrent knee symptoms who underwent arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The retrospective study of medical records was analyzed. There was high positive correlation between MRI and arthroscopic surgical findings in ACL graft injury assessment but low and negligible correlation in detections of medial and lateral meniscal injuries, respectively.
