Motor Control of the Vastus Medialis Oblique and Vastus Lateralis Muscles is Disrupted during Eccentric Contractions in Subjects with Patellofemoral Pain

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine, 2002
Background Inappropriate control of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis muscles by the central nervous system can contribute to maltracking of the patella.

Menstrual Cycle Mediates Vastus Medialis and Vastus Medialis Oblique Muscle Activity

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2013
Sports medicine professionals commonly describe two functionally different units of the vastus medialis (VM), the VM, and the vastus medialis oblique (VMO), but the anatomical support is equivocal. The functional difference of the VMO is principle to rehabilitation programs designed to alleviate anterior knee pain, a pathology that is known to have a ...

Exercise Effect on Electromyographic Activity of the Vastus Medialis Oblique and Vastus Lateralis Muscles

Physical Therapy, 1990
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the vastus medialis oblique muscle (VMO) had greater electrical activity than the vastus lateralis muscle (VL) when hip adduction and medial (internal) tibial rotation exercises were performed. Electrical activity of the VMO and VL was measured on 25 healthy subjects during maximal-effort isometric ...

Anatomical Assessment of the Vastus Medialis Oblique Muscle in Patients With Osteoarthritis of the Knee

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2008
Minimally invasive total knee arthroplasty requires subluxation of patella laterally without eversion. The anatomy of the vastus medialis oblique muscle (VMO), which affects the surgical exposure of minimally invasive total knee arthroplasty, was investigated. There was no significant difference between men and women with respect to any parameter.

Atrophy of the Quadriceps Is Not Isolated to the Vastus Medialis Oblique in Individuals With Patellofemoral Pain

Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2015
Study Design Cross-sectional. Objectives To determine if quadriceps atrophy was present in people with patellofemoral pain (PFP), and whether the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) was selectively involved. Background Despite the lack of research investigating individual quadriceps muscle size in individuals with PFP, it has been suggested that selective ...

Fatigue rates of vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis during static and dynamic knee extension

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1991
AbstractFatigue rates of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis muscles were compared from static and dynamic exercise. Based upon clinical observations, it was expected that the vastus medialis oblique would demonstrate greater fatigability than the vastus lateralis.

An Electromyographic Study of Vastus Medialis Oblique and Vastus Lateralis Activity While Ascending and Descending Steps

Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 1998
Imbalances in the firing pattern and contraction intensity of the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and the vastus lateralis (VL) have been considered important factors contributing to patellofemoral joint dysfunction. Vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis electromyographic (EMG) activity were measured for 15 individuals without patellofemoral pain (
