Résumé

The infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) is an intracapsular but extrasynovial structure, located between the patellar tendon, the femoral condyles and the tibial plateau. It consists of white adipose tissue, organised in lobules defined by thin connective septa. The aim of this study is the morphometric and ultrasonographic analysis of IFP in subjects without knee pathology during flexion-extension movements. The morphometric study was conducted on 20 cadavers (15M, 5F, mean age 80.2 years). Ultrasound was performed on 24 volunteers with no history of knee diseases (5M, 19F, mean age: 45 years). The characteristics of the adipose lobules near the patellar tendon and in the deep portion of the IFP were evaluated. Numerical models were provided, according to the size of the lobules. At histological examination, the adipose lobules located near the patellar tendon were larger (mean area 12.2 mm
