| Popis: | Intrameniscal ossicles of the knee are rare lesions. We present two cases. The first case occurred in a male soccer player who had knee trauma, with radiographic findings of a meniscal ossicle. Meniscal motions were normal, and symptoms resolved with conservative measures. The second case was found in a male athlete with acute medial compartment instability and complex meniscal tears. His medial meniscus, containing the ossicle, was removed. Initial conservative management is recommended for all cases of meniscal ossicle, and arthroscopic resection of the ossicle is recommended for symptomatic cases. |
