Abstract

Chondrocalcinosis and Menicial injuries are both common findings on knee X ray and MRI (magnetic resonance Imaging) respectively. When both findings coexist in the setting of a painful knee effusion, they can lead to a diagnostic dilemma which is not always easy to sort out. This case report describes such a situation.
