Abstract Purpose This study aimed to (1) assess changes in subchondral bone density distribution across patellofemoral (PF) joint before and after medial closing wedge‐distal femoral varus osteotomy (MCW‐DFVO) and (2) determine correlation between PF alignment and changes in bone density distribution.

Ultrasound investigation of vastus medialis oblique muscle architecture: An in-vivo study
There is thought to be a link between vastus medialis oblique (VMO) architecture and patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Historical data are largely derived from older populations, whereas PFPS commonly affects younger populations. The aim of this study was to gather data on VMO architecture in young asymptomatic adults, to provide baseline values for

Ultrasound Guidance to Augment Needle Electromyography Precision in the Complex Nerve Injury Setting
ABSTRACT The rise in popularity of nerve transfer surgery in individuals with peripheral nerve and spinal cord injuries has elevated the importance of the preoperative electrodiagnostic examination. Needle electromyography (EMG) provides peripheral nerve surgeons with precise information about donor and recipient muscle health, aiding in decisions ...

Patellar malalignment combined with a deformed valgus knee is treated. After the nail inlet hole is created, the distal femur is obliquely osteotomized by creating a posterior cam on the distal bony fragment. The cam is consequently inserted into the marrow cavity of the proximal bony fragment and the desired axis of the lower extremity is realigned. A

ABSTRACT Objective To systematically review the evidence for physical (for e.g. strengthening) and mechanical (for e.g. foot orthoses) therapies for lower limb problems in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods Randomised clinical trials of physical and mechanical interventions for lower limb problems in children with JIA were ...

Purpose Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common pathology usually presenting with anterior or retropatellar pain. It is associated with a relative imbalance between the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and the vastus lateralis (VL) muscles. This can

EMG profile in two different angles during maximum voluntary isometric contraction in squat exercise [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to analyze the electric activity of the vastus medialis (VM) and vastus lateralis (VL) in two differing angles (70° and 90° of knee flexion) during maximum voluntary contraction in squat exercise.
