Objective: To assess the accuracy of routine knee MRI in detecting acute popliteal artery and/or common peroneal nerve (CPN) dysfunction following multiligamentous knee injury (MLKI), with correlation of MRI findings to clinical outcome. Materials and methods: Routine MRI knee examinations in 115 MLKI patients (54/115 with acute neurovascular injury, 61/115 without neurovascular injury) were retrospectively reviewed. Cases were classified by injury mechanism and ligamentous injuries sustained. MRI examinations were reviewed by two readers for vascular (arterial flow void, arterial calibre, intimal flap, perivascular hematoma) and CPN (intraneural T2-hyperintensity, calibre, discontinuity, perineural hematoma) injuries. Accuracy of routine knee MRI in the diagnosis of acute neurovascular injury and correlation of MRI findings to clinical outcome were evaluated. Results: Patients included 86/115 males, mean age 33 years. The accuracy of MRI in diagnosis of acute CPN injury was 80.6%, 83.6% (readers 1 and 2): sensitivity (78%, 79.7%), specificity (80%, 86.7%), PPV (78%, 82.5%), and NPV (82.7%, 84.4%). Increased intraneural T2 signal showed a significant correlation to acute CPN dysfunction (p < 0.05). MRI was 75%, 69.8% (readers 1 and 2) accurate in detecting acute vascular injury: sensitivity (73.3%, 86.7%), specificity (75.2%, 67.3%), PPV (30.5%, 36.1%), and NPV (95%, 97.1%). No MRI features of vascular injury showed a statistical correlation with clinical outcome. Neurovascular complications were more common in ultra-low-energy injuries and KD-V3L pattern of ligament disruption. Conclusion: Routine MRI is of limited accuracy in assessing vascular complication, but higher accuracy in assessing CPN injury following MLKI. Increased intraneural T2 signal on conventional knee MR imaging shows statistically significant association with clinically documented acute CPN dysfunction following MLKI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
