In the past years, there was a tendency to excise the patella in pathologic conditions affecting this bone. The patella has many critical effects in the function of the knee joint. For example, after its exicision the force of quadriceps muscle decreases by forty percent (40%) and the knee joint becomes prone to early osteoarthritic changes. For these reasons, in the recent years the "biologic ...
STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study using a cross-sectional design. OBJECTIVES To compare patellofemoral joint kinematics, femoral rotation, and patella rotation between females with patellofemoral pain (PFP) and pain-free controls using weight-bearing kinematic magnetic resonance imaging. BACKGROUND Recently, it has been recognized that patellofemoral malalignment may be the result of...
INTRODUCTION Nail-patella-syndrome (NPS) is a rare autosomal-dominant inherited disease with pathologies of nails, skeleton, kidneys, and eyes. Linkage to a mutated gene was found. It codes for the transcription-factor LMX1B. In most cases knees are symptomatic. Patients have hypoplastic patellae, which are laterally subluxated. In those individuals a sagittal trochlear fibrous septum was found...
Lateral luxation of the patella has been described in horses and ponies. Medial luxation has been reported only twice. Upward fixation of the patella is not true luxation. This report concerns two cases of lateral luxation of the patella related to hypoplasia of the lateral ridge of the trochlea of the femur.

The incidence of osteomyelitis constantly declines. While the disease most commonly affects the long bones, involvement of the patella is rarely seen. Due to this rarity and the variable clinical presentation, diagnosis is often delayed. The present case report describes a 10-year-old female patient with a delayed diagnosis of patella osteomyelitis. The diagnostic procedures and the treatment r...
BACKGROUND At primary and revision knee arthroplasty, a defi cient patella with a contained or uncontained defect is often encountered,1,2 especially in the presence of longstanding maltracking. In these cases, reconstruction is diffi cult, leaving an unsupported implant. Following the good outcomes achieved using cement fi xation of large defects of the tibial plateau augmented with screws,3 w...
Figure 1. Lateral knee radiograph showing patella alta. A 68-year-old male presented to the emergency department with anterior right knee pain after falling at home and directly hitting his patella on the stepladder edge while he was going upstairs. Physical examination revealed infrapatellar region painful swelling and impaired knee extension. Knee radiographs showed no fracture; however, the ...
OBJECTIVE We sought to compare associations of patella lead, which may represent a unique cumulative and bioavailable lead pool, with other lead measures in models of renal function. METHODS Renal function measures included blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, measured and calculated creatinine clearances, and urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) and retinol-binding protein. RESU...
Among stress fractures associated with sports activities, patellar stress fracture is rare. Regarding patella stress fractures, so far only distal transverse or lateral longitudinal fractures have been reported, but there are no reports of transverse fractures occurring in the proximal patella. We describe an extremely rare case of transverse stress fracture of proximal patella in a 9-year-old ...
The rotational alignment tヲfthe lovver limbs of 24 patients who developed r巴currentdislocation of the patella were measured by means of computed axial tomography. The femoral anteversion and the external rotation of the knee joint of these patients respectively showed 31.9土15.2° and 9.2土6.8° on the average. These figures were significantly larger than those of the control. The average external ...
