Impact of Femoral Derotation Osteotomy on Patellofemoral Loading in Patients With Patellofemoral Instability: Insights From a Musculoskeletal Simulation Study. [PDF]
J Orthop ResABSTRACT Increased femoral version is linked to patellofemoral instability, increased lateral loading of the patella and might be treated with femoral derotation osteotomy (FDO) in excessive cases. However, the effects of FDO on patellofemoral stability and loading while walking are not fully understood and not measurable in vivo.
