Lymphatics filled at knee arthrography

M Kormano, P Mäkelä

    Acta Radiologica: Diagnosis

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Knee arthrography can show lymphatic vessel filling in certain conditions like arthritis or after surgery. Larger contrast volumes increase the likelihood of visualizing these lymphatic pathways.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Lymphatic System Anatomy

    Background:

    • Knee arthrography is a diagnostic imaging technique.
    • Understanding incidental findings like lymphatic filling is important for accurate interpretation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the occurrence and context of lymphatic vessel filling during knee arthrography.
    • To determine factors associated with lymphatic filling in knee joints.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 587 knee arthrography examinations.
    • Analysis of cases with observed lymphatic vessel filling.

    Main Results:

    • Lymphatic vessel filling was identified in 12 out of 587 cases (approximately 2%).

  • Observed in association with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, meniscal tears, popliteal cysts, and post-operatively.
  • Filling was independent of contrast leakage from cysts or extra-articular injections.

    • Conclusions:

    • Lymphatic filling during knee arthrography is an uncommon but recognized finding.
    • It is associated with various intra-articular pathologies and surgical interventions.
    • Increased volume of positive contrast medium may enhance the visualization of lymphatic filling.
