Snapping Knee Caused by a Superiorly Displaced Medial Meniscus: Knee Dynamic Ultrasonographic Findings

The causes of snapping knee include meniscal instability, but dynamic ultrasonographic findings have rarely been reported. Here, we report a case of snapping knee due to direct trauma to the right knee of a 79-year-old woman. Dynamic ultrasonography is used to confirm the snapping phenomenon caused...

description The causes of snapping knee include meniscal instability, but dynamic ultrasonographic findings have rarely been reported. Here, we report a case of snapping knee due to direct trauma to the right knee of a 79-year-old woman. Dynamic ultrasonography is used to confirm the snapping phenomenon caused by the anterosuperior displacement of the truncated posterior horn and body of the right medial meniscus.
