II

60.0%

X-ray: collapse ≥14 mm, widening ≥10 mm, the positive rate of lateral meniscus injury was 100%.

Gardner et al. [8]

62

II

73.0%

X-ray: collapse > 6 mm, widening > 5 mm, the positive rate of lateral meniscus injury was 83.0%.

Ringus et al. [9]

85

I-VI

28.6%

Coronal CT: collapse > 10 mm, an 8-fold increase in the risk of lateral meniscus tear.

Chang et al. [10]

102

I-VI

63.6%

Coronal CT: collapse > 6.3 mm, the positive rate of lateral meniscus injury was 75.5%.

Kolb et al. [11]

55

I-III

34.5%

Coronal CT: per 1 mm widening, the positive rate of lateral meniscus injury increased by 40%.
