Role of the Vastus Medialis Obliquus in Repositioning the Patella

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2008
Background It has been assumed that patellofemoral pain syndrome results from patellar malalignment. The precise role the vastus medialis obliquus plays in mediating the underlying pathologic abnormality is unclear. Hypothesis The morphologic characteristics of the vastus medialis obliquus correlate to patellar malalignment in patients with ...

Patellar Stabilization: A Quantitative Evaluation of the Vastus Medialis Obliquus Muscle

Orthopedics, 1998
ABSTRACT Twenty-one cadaveric knees were dissected to analyze the functional anatomy of the vastus medialis complex (VMC), which is composed of the vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) and the vastus medialis longus (VML) muscles. The physiologic cross-sectional area of the VMO for 20 of the knees was 29% of the total physiologic cross-sectional ...

Do the vastus medialis obliquus and vastus medialis longus really exist? A systematic review

Clinical Anatomy, 2008
Abstract There remains controversy over whether the vastus medialis (VM) is a single anatomical structure or whether it is composed of two separate portions, the vastus medialis longus (VML) proximally and the vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) distally.

Neurilemoma located at the patellar insertion of vastus medialis obliquus

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2004
We report a case of a rare neurological tumour arising in the knee joint with no apparent connection to the major nerve trunks in the area. After the patient failed to improve through rehabilitation, surgery was performed, revealing a concomitant tear of the medial meniscus as well as a mass which was excised through an external supero-medial incision ...

Myoelectric manifestations of fatigue in vastus lateralis, medialis obliquus and medialis longus muscles

open access: closedJournal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 2007
The purpose of this study was to determine whether surface electromyography (EMG) assessment of myoelectric manifestations of muscle fatigue is capable of detecting differences between the vastus lateralis and medialis muscles which are consistent with the results of previous biopsy studies.

Insertion orientation of terminal vastus lateralis obliquus and vastus medialis obliquus muscle fibers in human knees

Clinical Anatomy, 1993
AbstractThe quadriceps mechanism consists of the patellar ligament distally and the quadriceps tendon proximally. The quadriceps tendon is the confluence of the tendinous portions of the vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius, and rectus femoris. Lieb and Perry (J. Bone Joint Surg.

Temporal Activity of Vastus Medialis Obliquus and Vastus Lateralis in Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis

American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, 2002
Knee osteoarthritis has a major impact on quadriceps function, yet its effect on the specific temporal recruitment of vastus medialis obliquus and vastus lateralis is unknown. The aim of this study was to determine the electromyographic onset of vastus medialis obliquus activity relative to that of vastus lateralis in individuals with symptomatic knee ...

A Novel Method for Measuring Electromechanical Delay on the Vastus Medialis Obliquus and Vastus Lateralis

Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2009
Abstract Electromechanical delay (EMD) of the vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL) is determined by measuring the interval between the time of onset of muscle activities and the time of onset of mechanical output. However, individual mechanical output of the VMO or the VL cannot be obtained with the conventional method because of ...
