Intraarticular arthrofibrosis of the knee alters patellofemoral contact biomechanics
BACKGROUND Arthrofibrosis in the suprapatellar pouch and anterior interval can develop after knee injury or surgery, resulting in anterior knee pain. These adhesions have not been biomechanically characterized. METHODS The biomechanical effects of adhesions in the suprapatellar pouch and anterior interval during simulated quadriceps muscle contraction from 0 to 90° of knee flexion were assess...
متن کاملArthrofibrosis of the knee.
Better understanding of surgical timing, improved surgical technique, and advanced rehabilitation protocols has led to decreased incidence of motion loss after anterior cruciate ligament injury and reconstruction. However, motion loss from high-energy, multiligament injuries continues to compromise functional outcome. Prevention, consisting of control of inflammation and early motion, remains t...
متن کاملBasic kinematics and biomechanics of the patellofemoral joint part 2: the patella in total knee arthroplasty.
Patellar and femoral component in total knee arthroplasty are inextricably linked as a functional unit. The configuration of this unit has been a matter of ongoing debate, and the myriad of different patellar and femoral components currently available reflect the lack of consensus with respect to the ideal design. One of the major challenges is to overcome the biomechanical disadvantages of a s...
متن کاملIn vitro method for assessing the biomechanics of the patellofemoral joint following total knee arthroplasty.
The patellofemoral joint is a common site of pain and failure following total knee arthroplasty. A contributory factor may be adverse patellofemoral biomechanics. Cadaveric investigations are commonly used to assess the biomechanics of the joint, but are associated with high inter-specimen variability and often cannot be carried out at physiological levels of loading. This study aimed to evalua...
متن کاملCorrelation between knee kinematics and patellofemoral contact pressure in total knee arthroplasty.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between patellofemoral contact stress and intraoperative knee kinematic patterns after mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Medial osteoarthritic knees of forty-six posterior-stabilized total knee prostheses were evaluated using a computed tomography-guided navigation system. Subjects were divided into two groups based on intraopera...
