Fig 2 Coronal and sagittal T1-wighted left knee magnetic resonance imaging showing hypertrophy of the articular cartilage in a wavy irregular pattern in this patient with multiple epiphyseal dysplasia. There is no evidence for loose bodies, unstable chondral flaps, or unstable tears of the menisci.
