Right stifle joint: 
Both the supra- and infrapatellar recess of the right stifle joint contain a moderate and
mild amount of anechoic effusion respectively. The joint capsule reveals moderate
thickening. Moderate synovial proliferations are noted.
The cartilage layers as appreciated within the patellar sulcus and onto the femoral
condyles present uneven thickness, irregular surface and multifocal increase in
echogenicity. This is most pronounced at the periarticular margins but extends into the
joint surface oft he patellar sulcus as well as the femoral condyles. The subchondral
bone of the femoral condyles as appreciated is uneven in outline with subchodral bone
defects in the periphery oft he joint surface.
A severe amount of osteophytes is noted at the periarticular margins of the
femoropatellar and femorotibial joints.
The cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) presents is a discontinuous broad echogenic band
emerging from the intercondylar eminence of the tibia. Only scant periligamentous
effusion noted. Soft tissue proliferations and marked regional synovial thickening is
evident here.
The infrapatellar fat body is heterogenous and contains a mineralization as found
commonly in chronic degenerative joint disease (DJD).The view on the medial meniscus is restricted by a mineralization. As far as visible it is
in situ with regular outline and multifocal increase in echogenicity. The lateral
meniscus is in situ too but presents multifocal increase in echogenicity and mild
surface irregularity.
