Patellofemoral pain affects physically active and sedentary individuals, accounting for 11–
17% of knee pain presentations to general practice 1 2 and 25–40% of all knee problems …

Objective We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the associations of knee alignment
or trochlear morphology (measured on imaging) with presence, severity, onset, and/or …

Patellofemoral joint integrity is maintained by an optimal interaction of passive, dynamic and
structural restraints. Disruption of these mechanics can lead to structural joint damage and …

Purpose The current study was performed to relate anatomical parameters to in vivo patellar
tracking for pediatric patients with recurrent patellar instability. Methods Seven pediatric …

The purpose of this study is to determine if patellar maltracking is more prevalent among
patellofemoral (PF) pain subjects with patella alta compared to subjects with normal patella …

MR‐based methods provide low risk, noninvasive assessment of joint kinematics; however,
these methods often use static positions or require many identical cycles of movement. The …

The current issue of Osteoarthritis and Cartilage contains two manuscripts devoted to the
patellofemoral (PF) joint. This is notable, since the PF compartment is rarely considered in …

Objective To assess using weight bearing magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs), whether a
patellar brace altered patellar position and alignment in patellofemoral joint (PFJ) …

Background Increase in lateral patellar tilt-(LPT) can cause increased pressure on the lateral
facet of the knee and can lead to patellar or femoral cartilage damage and further osseous …

Background Patellar stabilizing braces are used to alleviate pain and prevent subluxation/
dislocation by having biomechanical effects in terms of improved patellar tracking. The …
