Abstract

Introduction: The present paper studied three lower organ linear disorders, including tibial rotation (rotatingtibia bone around linear axis) (femoral anteversion), femoral normal rotation, and varus complications aspossible risk factors of common sports injuries of knee.Methods: In this comparative descriptive study, 60 men were divided into three meniscal injury, anteriorcross ligament and healthy groups (n=20). All of the participants were current wrestlers at different clubsof Kermanshah province and towns who had at least four years of experience in various sports events.The samples of the injured groups were selected through questionnaire and referral to sports clubs and thehealthy group sample was randomly selected. The healthy individuals had no record of knee injury.Results: The results of the present study revealed that anteversion (internal rotation of femur) affected bothcommon anterior cruciate ligament and meniscal impairments, and tibial rotation only significantly affectedmeniscal injury not anterior cruciate ligament. Also, increase of knee varus angle did not have any effect onmeniscal and anterior cruciate ligament injuries.Conclusion: The results of this study can be helpful to recognize the risk factors of sports injuries.

Abstract

Background & Objectives: Knee is the largest synovial joint in the body. Although FSE PD (fastspin echo proton density) imaging technique for the diagnosis of meniscal tear has replaced CSE PD(conventional spin echo proton density) technique in many MRI centers, several studies have questionedthe effectiveness of FSE PD technique in diagnosis of meniscal tear. In this study, the diagnostic valuesof CSE PD and FSE PD techniques in evaluation of meniscus tear are compared.Materials: In this study, using CSE PD and FSE PD techniques, MRI was performed on 67 knees ofpatients with suspected meniscal tear referring to the MRI Center of Imam Reza Hospital (Kermanshah,Iran). Diagnostic arthroscopy was also performed for all patients. The data were entered SPSS version20, and finally the results of MRI reports of the two techniques were compared in evaluation of meniscaltear taking into account the arthroscopic findings as the gold standard.Results: According to the results of this study, no significant difference was found in specificity andpositive predictive value of the two techniques. However, the sensitivity and negative predictive valueswere significantly different, in such a way that the related values were 97% and 97% in the CSE PDtechnique and 69% and 73% in the FSE PD technique, respectively.Conclusion: Due to low sensitivity and high false negative results, MRI using FSE PD technique is notrecommended as an alternative for CSE PD technique in evaluation of meniscal tear.
