Peripheral myofascial/muscle belly edema of the distal semimembranosus with extension into the free tendon. Posteromedial corner structures are otherwise uninjured.
Case Discussion
Always keep an eye on the extra-articular structures as a cause for knee pain, especially as these tend to be incompletely imaged when the field of view is centered on the knee.
