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 کاملIs tibiofemoral osteoarthritis in the knee joint a new disease?
OBJECTIVES To compare the prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip, tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joints in a skeletal population. METHODS A total of 785 adult English skeletons (695 Saxon or Mediaeval origin) were examined for OA using established criteria. RESULTS Twenty nine skeletons had hip OA, compared with 14 with patellofemoral joint OA, and only four tibiofemoral joint OA. ...
متن کاملPatellofemoral joint osteoarthritis: an important subgroup of knee osteoarthritis.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent disease afflicting elderly people. As the knee joint is tri-compartmental, numerous radiographic patterns of disease are possible. The patellofemoral joint (PFJ) is one of the most commonly affected compartments. Although PFJ OA is frequently observed, this particular disease sub-group has gone largely unrecognised. Recent research suggests that not only ...

متن کاملTibiofemoral joint contact force in deep knee flexion and its consideration in knee osteoarthritis and joint replacement.
The aim of the study was to estimate the tibiofemoral joint force in deep flexion to consider how the mechanical load affects the knee. We hypothesize that the joint force should not become sufficiently large to damage the joint under normal contact area, but should become deleterious to the joint under the limited contact area. Sixteen healthy knees were analyzed using a motion capture system,...
