Diagnostic value of the patellar tendon–lateral trochlear ridge distance and the patellar tendon–trochlear groove angle in differentiating lateral patellar instability from malalignment‐induced patellofemoral pain

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the patellar tendon–lateral trochlear ridge (PT‐LTR) distance and patellar tendon–trochlear groove angle (PT‐TGA) between patients with lateral patellar instability (LPI) and those with malalignment‐induced patellofemoral pain (PFP), and to evaluate their differential diagnostic validity.
