Abstract

Normal menisci may show transient distortion during knee arthrography. This usually results from intermittent visualization of the meniscus out of direct profile to the x-ray beam. Similar transient distortion may result from actual buckling of an anatomically normal meniscus during stressful maneuvers in young individuals.
