Abstract
Three patients with an arthroscopically proved normal variant, the oblique meniscomeniscal ligament, underwent prospective magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the knee. In the first case, the ligament was misinterpreted as a displaced flap tear of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus. In the two subsequent cases, the ligament was identified correctly at MR imaging as the oblique meniscomeniscal ligament.
