"Subchondral insufficiency fracture of the knee (SIF/SIFK) are stress fractures in the femoral condyles or tibial plateau that occur in the absence of acute trauma, typically affecting older adults."

Line 1:60 · 'SIF' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"This entity subsumes what was previously known as spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee (SONK/SPONK) or Ahlbäck disease. Recognising that spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee was a misnomer and actually represents a subchondral insufficiency fracture that progressed to subchondral collapse with secondary osteonecrosis, the Society of Skeletal Radiology Subchondral Bone Nomenclature Committee recommended that "subchondral insufficiency fracture" be the preferred term ¹⁷."

"Classification"

Line 21:1 · "Classification" should be H2, not H3.

Semicolons

suggestion

"this area shows no enhancement on post-contrast; if it is thicker than 4 mm or longer than 14 mm, the lesion may be irreversible and may evolve into irreparable epiphyseal collapse and articular destruction"

Line 46:55 · Use semicolons judiciously.

Biographical Lifespan

suggestion

"History and etymology"

Line 65:1 · A bold element in the History and etymology section should be a person; it would be useful to have their lifespan details: '<h4>History and etymology</h4> <p>It was first systematically described by <strong>Ahlbäck</strong> '
