Medial closing wedge distal femoral varus osteotomy alters the stress distribution pattern of the patellofemoral joint: An evaluation using computed tomography osteoabsorptiometry

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
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

open access: yesInternational Journal of Surgery, 2013
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

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 133-148, February 2026.
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 Deformed Valgus Knee Treated by Distal Femoral Varus Osteotomy and Retrograde Intramedullary Nailing

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 66-73, January 2026.
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

Physical and Mechanical Therapies for Lower Limb Problems in Children With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: A Systematic Review With Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
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 ...

Botulinum toxin injections as salvage therapy is beneficial for management of patellofemoral pain syndrome

open access: yesKnee Surgery & Related Research, 2021
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
