Functional Anatomy in Knee Osteoarthritis: Patellofemoral Joint vs. Tibiofemoral Joint
“Knee Joint Osteoarthritis” is the topic chosen for the first editorial of the second volume of this journal. The aim of this editorial is to discuss this interesting but little analyzed topic in the current literature, in order to explain and help readers to better understand the functional anatomical aspects of knee joints affected by Osteoarthritis (OA). As the knee joint is tri-compartmenta...
متن کاملThe Anatomy of the Medial Patellofemoral Ligament.
Recurrent patellar dislocation is observed in many patients treated nonoperatively following primary dislocation. Injury to the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is reported in the majority of patients following dislocation. There is an increased interest in repair or reconstruction of the MPFL for patients experiencing recurrent instability. The femoral attachment of the MPFL is critical i...
متن کاملThe patho-anatomy of patellofemoral subluxation.
Patella subluxation assessed on dynamic MRI has previously been shown to be associated with anterior knee pain. In this MRI study of 60 patients we investigated the relationship between subluxation and multiple bony, cartilaginous and soft-tissue factors that might predispose to subluxation using discriminant function analysis. Patella engagement (% of patella cartilage overlapping with trochle...
متن کاملAnatomy and surface geometry of the patellofemoral joint in the axial plane.
We studied the anatomy of the patellofemoral joint in the axial plane on cryosections from a cadaver knee and on MR arthrotomograms from 30 patients. The cryosections revealed differences in the geometry and anatomy of the surface of the articular cartilage and corresponding subchondral osseous contours of the patellofemoral joint. On the MR arthrotomograms the surface geometry of the cartilage...
متن کاملA novel patellofemoral scoring system for patellofemoral joint status.
BACKGROUND We were not aware of a well-validated patellofemoral joint-specific scoring system. We performed this study to develop and validate a scoring system (Samsung Medical Center [SMC] patellofemoral scoring system) suitable for the evaluation of patellofemoral joint status. METHODS We recruited 179 individuals consisting of a study group of 123 patients with anterior knee pain but witho...
