Abstract

The aims of our study is to correlate the specific clinical tests ( joint line tenderness test , Apley’s test ,McMurray’s test and Thessaly test ) with the MRI and arthroscopic findings . The patients in this study are carefully selected from a certain age group - years and with recent trauma. Risk factors for poor results include previous meniscectomies , previous knees ligament repair , previous reconstruction , previous arthroscopy , case with fracture , case with chronic debilitating diseases and case with deformity in knee . All patients are subjected to physical examination, MRI then arthroscopy as a gold standard. The results are collected and tabulated on SPSS spreadsheet and studied for correlation. The sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy of clinical tests and MRI were be evaluated. The results are compared and reviewed with results of other literatures
