Change in knee cartilage components in stroke patients with genu recurvatum analysed by zero TE MR imaging
Genu recurvatum in stroke patients with hemiplegia causes readily cumulative damage and degenerative changes in the knee cartilage. It is important to detect early cartilage lesions for appropriate treatment and rehabilitation. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to provide a theoretical b...

description | Genu recurvatum in stroke patients with hemiplegia causes readily cumulative damage and degenerative changes in the knee cartilage. It is important to detect early cartilage lesions for appropriate treatment and rehabilitation. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to provide a theoretical basis for the early rehabilitation of hemiplegia patients. We used a zero TE double-echo imaging sequence to analyse the water content in knee joint cartilage at 12 different sites of 39 stroke patients with genu recurvatum and 9 healthy volunteers using a metric similar to the porosity index. When comparing the hemiplegic limb vs. the nonhemiplegic limb in patients, the ratios of the deep/shallow free water content of the femur cartilages at the anterior horn (1.16 vs. 1.06) and posterior horn (1.13 vs. 1.25) of the lateral meniscus were significantly different. Genu recurvatum in stroke patients with hemiplegia can cause changes in the moisture content of knee cartilage, and the changes in knee cartilage are more obvious as the genu recurvatum increases. The "healthy limb" can no longer be considered truly healthy and should be considered simultaneously with the affected limb in the development of a rehabilitation treatment plan. |
