Abstract
About 10% of meniscal tears are bucket-handle tears and more frequently affect the medial meniscus three times more than the external meniscus. It turns out that the simultaneous tear in à bucket handle at the same knee is a rare phenomenon. In this article we report a case of a 25-year-old man with a simultaneous bucket-handle tear in the same knee discovered on magnetic resonance imaging. Magnetic resonance imaging provides an accurate diagnosis of this type of injury.
