Displaced bucket-handle tear of the medial meniscus with tear from the middle part of the meniscus. (a) Coronal T2 FSE Fat Sat MRI: large meniscal fragment (arrow) seen within the intercondylar notch; (b) Coronal T2 FSE Fat Sat MRI: flap tears displaced horizontal under surface tear of the body and anterior horn of the medial meniscus with a flipped fragment (arrow); (c) Sagittal T2 FSE Fat Sat MRI showing a complex tear with a displaced fragment (arrow); (d) Axial T2 FSE Fat Sat MRI reconstruction showing the 2 flap tears of the displaced bucket-handle; (e) three-dimensional diagram; (f) arthroscopic view showing the rupture and the displaced bucket-handle tear.
