Abstract
Severe knee injuries that involve the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) with and without concomitant lateral meniscus (LM) tears are common and predispose the knee to arthritis. The objective of this study was to determine if these injuries produce a different response in males compared to females and determine if differences exist between ACL injury in isolation and combined ACL and LM injury. This study included 20 subjects (10 males, 10 females) who were studied with Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging (qMRI). No differences were found between males and females. Combined injuries displayed elevated qMRI values compared to isolated ACL injuries.
