This article presents the imaging findings of proximal tibiofibular joint disorders that can cause lateral knee pain. ONLUSION. The proximal tibiofibular joint is often neglected in the evaluation of lateral knee pain. The images presented in this article highlight the diverse disorders of this area. ecause this joint is usually in the field of view in radiography, T, and MRI of the knee, evaluation of it should be a part of all knee imaging assessments. he proximal tibiofibular joint is a T source of lateral knee pain that is often overlooked as a result of its lack of emphasis in the literature and textbooks [1, 2] and the few reports devoted to its disorders [2]. This point is particularly significant in that the proximal tibiofibular joint is usually in the field of view of most knee imaging studies. The proximal tibiofibular joint is a synovial joint that functions in dissipating lower leg torsional stresses and lateral tibial bending moments and in transmitting axial loads in weight-bearing [1]. Numerous disorders of the proximal tibiofibular joint can present as lateral knee pain. In this article, normal proximal tibiofibular joint anatomy and imaging characteristics of disease entities that occur at this site are discussed. In addition, many diseases that are not technically in the proximal tibiofibular joint but are adjacent or related to it are also included, because lesions in these adjacent structures can affect the proximal tibiofibular joint. This article will emphasize osteoarthritis, neoplasms, ganglion cysts, pigmented villonodular synovitis, and trauma. Other disorders that can affect the proximal tibiofibular joint but are not specifically discussed include osteoid osteoma, Maisonneuve fracture of the fibular neck, and infections. Taken together, these examples of proximal tibiofibular joint disorders underscore the importance of evaluation of this joint in routine knee imaging assessments. Normal natomy of the Proximal Tibiofibular Joint The proximal tibiofibular joint is located between the lateral tibial condyle and the fibular head. It communicates with the knee joint in approximately 10% of adults, although communication in up to 64% has been reported with MR arthrography [1]. ecause the proximal tibiofibular joint can be contiguous with the knee joint, either joint may be affected when the joint pressure is elevated, and thus the proximal tibiofibular joint has been construed as the fourth compartment of the knee joint [1]. fibrous capsule surrounds the proximal tibiofibular joint articulation, and this is strengthened by anterosuperior and posterosuperior tibiofibular ligaments (Figs. 1 and 2). The common peroneal nerve descends along the lateral aspect of the popliteal fossa and curves around the anterolateral aspects of the fibular head and neck (Fig. 1). It passes lateral to the anterior compartment musculature and deep in relation to the peroneus longus musculature, where it divides into superficial and deep branches. Normal MRI natomy The anterosuperior and posterosuperior ligaments have low signal intensity on all imaging sequences (Fig. 2). small amount of fluid (high T2 signal) may normally be present in the proximal tibiofibular joint. Nerves are low to intermediate signal intensity on T1-weighted images (Fig. 2) and become slightly higher in signal intensity on T2-weighted images. Disorders Osteoarthritis Degenerative arthritis of the proximal tibiofibular joint may accompany osteoarthritis JR:188, pril 2007 W359

In patients scheduled to undergo total knee replacement arthroplasty, an unrecognized proximal tibiofibular joint disorder may be a source of progressive lateral knee pain and may influence clinical outcome. s with other joints, osteophytes (Fig. 3), subchondral cysts, subchondral sclerosis, and joint space narrowing are typical imaging findings. Neoplasms Various neoplasms can affect the proximal tibiofibular joint, including osteochondroma, osteoblastoma, osteosarcoma, and nerve sheath tumors. n osteochondroma is a benign lesion that rarely undergoes malignant transformation [3]. It is usually asymptomatic and is usually discovered incidentally (Fig. 4). In superficial regions such as the proximal tibiofibular joint, osteochondroma can present as a painless palpable mass or with symptoms related to nerve irritation. Osteoblastoma is an uncommon benign neoplasm occurring predominantly in the axial skeleton (Fig. 5). pproximately 35% occur in long tubular bones, and 75% of these are in the diaphysis. Only a few cases involving the epiphysis have been reported [3]. Osteosarcoma is the second most common primary bone malignancy [3], with a peak incidence in the second to third decades of life. lthough the distal femur and the proximal tibia are most often involved, any bone can be affected. ggressive, boneforming features are usually noted on imaging (Figs. 6 and 6). Schwannomas and neurofibromas make up most of the peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Most of these are solitary, slowly growing masses; when they are large, they can cause pain and neuropathy. Schwannomas and neurofibromas typically show homogeneously low signal intensity on T1-weighted imaging, high signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging (Fig. 7), and intense enhancement with administration of gadolinium. target appearance may be seen when central fibrous tissue causes T2 shortening. Trauma The proximal tibiofibular joint is often injured by direct trauma. However, indirect forces causing varus strain, hyperflexion, or hyperextension can also lead to significant injuries, including fracture, dislocation, ligament strains (Fig. 8) and tears, and injury to the neurovascular bundle. The popliteus tendon, lying in close proximity to the proximal tibiofibular joint, should be carefully assessed for either an isolated tear (Fig. 9) or involvement in a more complex posterolateral corner injury. Posterolateral orner Injury The posterolateral corner of the knee is anatomically complex and is made up of the lateral collateral ligament, the popliteus muscle and tendon, and the arcuate complex (arcuate, fabellofibular, and popliteofibular ligaments) (see [4] for a detailed review). The diagnosis of posterolateral corner injury should be suspected when disruption of more than one of these structures is encountered [4]. n avulsion fracture of the styloid process of the fibular head (Fig. 10), which is the site of insertion of the arcuate complex, has been termed the arcuate sign and is an indicator of posterolateral instability [5]. Most often, the mechanism of injury is direct force to the anteromedial tibia with the knee in extension. It is important to recognize a posterolateral corner injury because the knee is unstable in extension and there is usually an accompanying anterior or posterior cruciate ligament (PL) tear (Fig. 10). Unrecognized or untreated posterolateral instability can lead to failures of the anterior cruciate ligament (L) or PL repairs and chronic knee instability [5, 6]. Ganglion ganglion is a tumorlike, cystic lesion that arises from the joint, tendon sheath, or muscle [7]. Those arising near the proximal tibiofibular joint articulation are rare entities that can be associated with compression of the common peroneal nerve (Fig. 11). Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) disease of unknown cause, PVNS is characterized by synovial hypertrophy with diffuse or focal hemosiderin deposition in the joint [8]. It is monoarticular, affecting the knee most frequently, and it usually occurs in adults in the third or fourth decade. Imaging reveals large, globular areas of low T1 and T2 signal outlining the hypertrophied synovium (Fig. 12). onclusion The examples of proximal tibiofibular joint disorders presented in this article highlight the diverse disease entities that can occur at this joint. ecause the proximal tibiofibular joint is usually included in the field of view in radiography, T, and MRI of the knee, evaluation of it should be a part of all imaging assessments of the knee region.
