MRI
This in an MRI of the knee:
Disomogeneo incremento di segnale del menisco medíale soprattutto sul terzo medio e sul corno posteriore per degenerazione avanzata, il margine libero al passaggio fra tali due porzioni ***amputato***, con irregolaritá del profilo articolare del corno posteriore sui versante tibíale per fissurazione ed irregolaritá con bombatura del muro meniscale a livello del corpo e del corno posteriore della fibrocartilagine per degenerazione cistica parameniscale.
What does amputato mean in this context? I don't have a diagnosis unfortunately, just the MRI results.
Many thanks.

The meniscal cartilage exhibited contrast medium imbibition ranging from mild, visible as a thin layer on the surface of the tissue, to marked where the medium increased both in amount and depth, consistent with greater damage to the meniscus. Physical damage to the meniscus ranged from its inner free edge appearing frayed (Fig. 1⇔) to its truncation and loss (Fig. 2⇔). The surface contours of the menisci were also altered, appearing convex, bulging into and occasionally filling the entire joint space.

The radiologists determined the presence or absence of meniscal lesions, including contour irregularity, meniscocapsular separation, and tears. They also determined the presence or absence of partially detached meniscal fragments. Contour irregularity was defined as an altered meniscus shape with truncation, blunting, flattening, and/or rounding of the inner borders on coronal or sagittal MR images.
