Background: Focal cartilage lesions in the patellofemoral (PF) joint are common. Several studies correlated PF risk factors with instability, anterior knee pain, and arthritis; however, there is a lack of evidence correlating those to focal lesions. Purpose: To evaluate influence anatomic patients isolated Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level evidence, 3. Methods: Patients were included lesion group, other pathologies normal control group. Multiple accessed on magnetic resonance...
Cartilage lesions of the patellofemoral joint constitute a frequent abnormality. Patellofemoral conditions are challenging to treat because complex biomechanics and morphology.To develop consensus statement on functional anatomy, indications, donor graft considerations, surgical treatment, rehabilitation for management large chondral osteochondral defects in using modified Delphi technique.Consensus statement.A working group 4 persons generated list statements related form basis an initial...
When trochlear dysplasia is present, it difficult to measure the tibial tuberosity groove (TT–TG) distance. A new measurement assess position was recently described by Seitlinger et al, which avoids difficulty of identifying TG as references posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). To evaluate reproducibility al findings, 42 knees in 41 patients with a documented history recurrent patellar instability and 84 no or patellofemoral symptoms were evaluated magnetic resonance imaging. The TT–PCL...
The tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) is used as the gold standard for patellofemoral malalignment.To assess 3 patellar tendon-trochlear (PT-TG) angle measurement techniques and PT-TG distance (tendinous cartilaginous TT-TG) predictors of instability.Cohort study (diagnosis); Level evidence, 3.Three measurements were measured in 82 participants with instability 100 controls using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Measurement landmarks line tangent to posterior femoral condyles,...
Although the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) has been neglected regarding its function in patellar stability, recently, importance terminal extension and during flexion recognized. Indications for reconstruction of patellofemoral combined with MPTL are subluxation, instability, children anatomic risk factors knee hyperextension associated generalized laxity. We describe a quadricipital tendon autografts.
The current study analyzed changes in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and lateral collateral stress as a result of mechanical varus. In an exploratory pilot study, progressive varus was introduced to male finite element model the lower limb at different knee flexion angles. Nine situations were (combinations 0°, 30°, 60° 5°, 10° varus). ACL measured via section force, von Mises stress, fiber stress. Lateral force. For all 3 measures ACL, maximum values found extension, decreased with...
To report outcomes and re-dislocation rates of medial patellar stabilizers reconstruction without bone procedures for correction anatomical risk factors instability in skeletally immature patients; to compare isolated patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) combined MPFL patellotibial (MPTL) this population.
IntroductionCartilage lesions and osteoarthritis are very prevalent imply a significant clinical economic burden.MethodsWe performed broad PUBMED database review with sensitive systematized strategy without restriction to article date or type.ResultsThis brings us the aspects of chondral osteochondral throughout different age groups patients. Focusing mainly on surgical treatment, we present here most widely used techniques. To facilitate discussion, patients have been divided into three...
