Journal of Biomechanics, 2008
In this review of patellofemoral joint forces as they might apply to implant design, methodologies for estimating forces on the patella and estimates of the forces, as reported in the literature, are summarized. Two methodologies exist for studying joint loads; one that measures kinematics in-vivo and uses analysis to estimate the joint loads and ...

Bracing for the Patellofemoral Joint
The Journal of Knee Surgery, 2022AbstractPatellofemoral disorders are common causes of knee pain that result in frequent visitations to musculoskeletal care clinics. Patellar tendinopathy, patellar instability and patellar maltracking, and pain are some of the most common pathologies resulting in patellofemoral dysfunction.

Patellofemoral joint arthroplasty
Orthopaedics and Trauma, 2017Abstract Isolated patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA) is symptomatic in around 10% of people aged over 55 years. This article presents a review of the treatment of PFOA with isolated patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA). PFA has evolved in patient selection, surgical technique and implant design since its inception in the 1950s.

The patellofemoral joint has traditionally been poorly understood and interventions for patellofemoral joint problems have generally been less successful than those employed for the tibiofemoral joint. Pathologies affecting the patellofemoral joint in the adult can be largely divided into three groups: instability, osteochondral defects and ...

Rehabilitation of the Patellofemoral Joint
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2014Nonsurgical care by a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation is typically a multifaceted approach, which can include modalities, bracing, medication, injection, proprioceptive techniques, restoration of normal movement patterns, and overall conditioning.

Biomechanics of Patellofemoral Joint Prostheses
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2005We describe the biomechanics of the patellofemoral joint and of patellofemoral joint prostheses. It seemed that the designs and associated instruments that were studied had little research and development and that soft tissue realignment procedures often were needed because of pre-existing pathology. Factors that help these unicompartmental implants to

Imaging of the Patellofemoral Joint
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2014The patellofemoral (PF) joint is a complex articulation, with interplay between the osseous and soft tissue structures to maintain the balance between knee mobility and stability. Disorders of the PF joint can be a source of anterior knee pain (AKP). In this article, radiographic and magnetic resonance imaging of the PF joint are reviewed, including ...

Biomechanics of the Patellofemoral Joint
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1979The patellofemoral joint contains 2 complex mechanisms for ameliorating forces transmitted across it, namely increasing extensor lever arm-r in the important range of flexion 30 degrees-70 degrees and increasing contact area with increasing flexion. In this range the patella bears sole responsibility for transmitting resultant flexion of quadriceps ...
