Initial investigation into patellofemoral morphology in hemophilic arthritis patients
BackgroundHemophilic arthritis (HA) is associated with significant changes in the morphology of mature knee joints due to abnormal growth plate development.

Structure, ontogeny and evolution of the patellar tendon in emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae) and other palaeognath birds [PDF]
The patella (kneecap) exhibits multiple evolutionary origins in birds, mammals, and lizards, and is thought to increase the mechanical advantage of the knee extensor muscles.

ABSTRACT Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) may enable improved functional outcomes compared to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This randomized controlled trial assessed pre‐ and postoperative patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) and knee joint gait biomechanics for UKA and TKA patients.

A Quantitative Histological Study of Tendon/Ligament – Bone Interface “Enthesis” in Human Knee Joint
Background: The distal epiphyseal attachments of patellar ligament and semimembranosus tendon were compared by routine histology in view of their role as mechanical barrier and primary pathological site for spondyloarthropathies.

Cancellous bone and theropod dinosaur locomotion. Part II—a new approach to inferring posture and locomotor biomechanics in extinct tetrapod vertebrates [PDF]
This paper is the second of a three-part series that investigates the architecture of cancellous bone in the main hindlimb bones of theropod dinosaurs, and uses cancellous bone architectural patterns to infer locomotor biomechanics in extinct non-avian ...

Implantless patellar fixation in medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction
The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) acts as primary restraint to lateral patellar dislocation and its rupture has been reported in almost all cases of acute patellar dislocation. Various surgical techniques have been described for MPFL reconstruction, using many femoral and patellar fixation techniques and different grafts.

Abstract Purpose Lateral patellofemoral ligament (LPFL) reconstruction addresses medial patellar instability, but uncertainty regarding the optimal femoral attachment site may affect isometry and increase complication rates. This study aimed to establish landmarks for the femoral attachment of the LPFL graft based on in vivo isometry during active knee
