  1. DLM discoid lateral meniscus, LMW% the percentage of the minimum meniscus width to the maximum tibia width, WTP maximum width of tibial plateau, PCL posterior cruciate ligament, LPTS lateral posterior tibial slope, MPTS medial posterior tibial slope, MPTA medial proximal tibial angle
  2. aThe values are given as the number of knees, with the percentage in parentheses
