Patellar malalignment: A common disorder associated with knee pain

Biomedical Journal, 2023
Pain-associated knee joint disorders are common in daily life. Practically, knee pain should be divided into the origin from the isolated tibiofemoral (TF), isolated patellofemoral (PF) joint, or a combination thereof.

The effect of exercise on vastus medialis oblique muscle architecture: An ultrasound investigation. [PDF]

, 2016
The vastus medialis oblique (VMO) is thought to be implicated in patellofemoral pain (PFP), and weakness in this portion of the vastus medialis muscle may lead to PFP. Management includes physiotherapy to strengthen the VMO.

Histochemical and morphometric characteristics of the normal human vastus medialis longus and vastus medialis obliquus muscles.

Journal of anatomy, 1995
The histochemical and morphometric characteristics of the vastus medialis longus and vastus medialis obliquus muscles were studied and compared with data on vastus lateralis. Cross-sections of autopsied muscles from 9 healthy men, aged 18-44 y, who had died suddenly were analysed.

Electromechanical Delay of the Vastus Medialis Obliquus and Vastus Lateralis in Individuals With Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2012
Study Design Case-control study. Objective To examine electromechanical delay (EMD) of the vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) and the vastus lateralis (VL) in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Background EMD is a mechanical property of muscles related to protective reflex and sports performance.

Retracted: Muscles within muscles: a tensiomyographic and histochemical analysis of the normal human vastus medialis longus and vastus medialis obliquus muscles

Journal of Anatomy, 2013
Abstract The aim of this study was to show the connection between structure (anatomical and histochemical) and function (muscle contraction properties) of vastus medialis obliquus ( VMO ) and vastus medialis longus ( VML ).

Medial Patellofemoral Complex Reconstruction Using the Rectus Femoris Tendon. [PDF]

Arthrosc Tech
Abstract The medial proximal static stabilizers of the patella are the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) and the medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament. These are collectively referred to as the “medial patellofemoral complex” (MPFC). MPFL reconstruction is the workhorse of patellar stabilization surgery for recurrent lateral instability.
