Lack of high BMI-related features in adipocytes and inflammatory cells in the infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) [PDF]
Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2017 Background Obesity is associated with the development and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). Although the infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) could be involved in this association, due to its intracapsular localization in the knee joint, there is currently ...

Identification of novel adipokines in the joint. Differential expression in healthy and osteoarthritis tissues. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 OBJECTIVES:Emerging data suggest that several metabolic factors, released mainly by white adipose tissue (WAT) and joint tissues, and collectively named adipokines, might have a role in the pathophysiology of OA.

Inflammatory gradients in the infrapatellar fat pad of knee osteoarthritis: implications for joint damage [PDF]
Arthritis Research & TherapyThe infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of knee osteoarthritis (KOA), exhibiting marked histological changes as the disease progresses. However, the intra-tissue variations within KOA-affected IFP remain poorly understood.

Localized nodular synovitis of the infrapatellar fat pad
Indian Journal of Orthopaedics, 2013 We report a case of localized nodular synovitis of the infrapatellar fat pad impinging on the patellofemoral joint causing limitation of extension. Arthroscopy involved use of a superolateral portal because location of lesion hindered access via a conventional anterior portal.

Arthroscopic Resection of Fat Pad Lesions and Infrapatellar Contractures [PDF]
Arthroscopy Techniques, 2014 The infrapatellar fat pad (IFP), also known as Hoffa's fat pad, may be a common site of pain in the knee because of its susceptibility to injury and its vast innervation and vascular supply.

Infrapatellar Fat Pad Para-Articular Osteochondroma: A Ten-Year Follow-up and Review [PDF]
Archives of Trauma Research, 2015 Introduction Para-articular masses are not clear enough in terms of their etiology and nomenclature. Although surgical removal of the mass is the preferred treatment, long term follow-up after surgical treatment has not been reported yet.

Effects on patellar chondromalacia of the size of the infrapatellar fat pad
Medicine Science, 2019 Infrapatellar fat tissue (IPFP), which is placed in the anterior compartment, has a vital role in the biomechanics of knee. It is thought that infrapatellar fat pad, which also functions as a storage for repair cells after injury, has a protective effect

Preservation of the infrapatellar fat pad during total knee arthroplasty reduces subacute postoperative anterior knee pain: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal DisordersBackground Preservation of the infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with a lower incidence of postoperative anterior knee pain (AKP). However, the comparative efficacy of IPFP preservation remains unclear.

Comprehensive comparative analysis of infrapatellar fat pad morphologies in a longitudinal knee osteoarthritis exploratory study: new insights into its role as an independent prognostic marker [PDF]
Arthritis Research & TherapyBackground No established markers can effectively phenotype knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients into subgroups. Infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) morphology data that can forecast disease symptoms, structural changes, and knee replacement (KR) are sparse and ...
