[Double contrast knee arthrography in meniscal lesions (author's transl)].
Double contrast arthrography, under fluoroscopic control, is a technically simple procedure with a high degree of diagnostic accuracy. The Authors performed 95 arthrographies in patients with suspect meniscal lesion, making a correct diagnosis of 84 (94%) out of 89 cases undergone surgical intervention. They conclude giving the indications to arthrographic examination, which needs to be limited to those cases in which the clinical diagnosis is difficult on uncertain.
