A 38-year-old woman presented to our clinic with right knee pain and difficulty ambulating. After cultures were obtained, a cryptococcal infection of the patella was identified. Subsequent workup reve...
Over a 20-month course, the patient was treated with fluconazole and antiretroviral therapy with very limited medication compliance. The disseminated infection caused cutaneous, hepatic, and cerebral ...
Patellar resurfacing is considered the standard of care for total knee arthroplasty in the USA. Complications of patella resurfacing include aseptic loosening or patella fractures and can threaten the...
Between 01/2010 and 08/2016 patella buttons were implanted in 1056 patients (267 men and 550 women) as part of a posterior stabilized total knee arthroplasty....
Of 1056 cases, 35 cases (14 women, 15 men, 5 bilateral, 3.3%) showed early loosening at a mean 52.5 months postoperatively. Patella components of 38 mm or larger diameters showed a significantly highe...
The current study reports a 3.3% patella loosening rate during this mid-term follow-up. Size 38 mm and larger patella components showed a significantly higher revision rate than smaller buttons and th...
Accessory bones in the elbow region are rare anatomical variations with important clinical significance as they can be misdiagnosed as pathological lesions. Usually, they are asymptomatic and found in...
To introduce a simple patellar height measurement method (patella-posterior turning point of the distal femur [P-PTP] Distance) independent of patellar anatomy with standardized patient position, and ...
We retrospectively reviewed 418 computed tomography (CT) images of the knee joint in a group of patients who were diagnosed recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD). With the three-dimensional (3D) CT rec...
198 knee images (198 patients) were included for final evaluation. Patella alta was present in 72 knees (36.3%) with RPD. The effect size was relatively large between the case and control group for P-...
The measurement method, P-PTP distance, showed good intra-observer and inter-observer reliability, well correlated with commonly used ratios, and presented best diagnostic accuracy among commonly used...
The measurement reported in this study may help in advancing clinical evaluation of patella alta, providing an alternative and simple method to measure patellar height. Standing or weight-bearing plai...
Patellar tuberculosis (TB) is a rare manifestation of musculoskeletal tuberculosis, accounting for a small proportion of cases. This case report presents a detailed analysis of a female patient in her...
Traditional tension band fixation of patella fracture is associated with high reoperation rates. The purpose of the study was to assess strength of fixation in patella fractures treated with either a ...
Ten paired human cadaveric specimens were included. A transverse fracture was created, reduced and fixated with a non-metallic or metallic approach. Non-metallic fixation was done according to a previ...
For cyclic loading analysis, one specimen from each group was excluded due to machine synchronization, resulting in a total population of 18 specimens. Median (min-max) fracture displacement was 0.65 ...
Non-metallic technique is a biomechanically viable alternative to traditional tension band fixation and it can hopefully lead to fewer implant-related complications....
Vancomycin powder (VP) is an antibiotic first introduced in pediatric spinal surgery to prevent surgical site infections (SSI). Recently its topical application was expanded to total hip and knee arth...
Between 2014 and 2021, 4292 joints were included in this monocentric retrospective cohort study. All patients underwent TKA without primary patella resurfacing. After a change of the procedure in the ...
There was no significant difference in the conversion rate for secondary patella resurfacing (4.24% VPG, 4.97% nVPG). Patella tracking and patella degeneration did not differ significantly between bot...
The topical application of VP does not influence the conversion rate for secondary patella resurfacing. Moreover, it does not result in a degeneration of patella cartilage in TK....
Retrospective case series, Level III....
Mediolateral patella displacement is of interest for diagnostics and clinically relevant research questions. Apart from manual testing, no standardized method is currently available. Proper quantifica...
The aim of the study was to perform a systematic review and best knowledge synthesis of the present literature concerning biomechanical risk factors for developing first-time and recurrent patella dis...
The study was performed as a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines. PubMed and EMBASE were systematically searched. Studies investigating participants with risk factors for first-time as well ...
A total of 6233 records were screened, and 50 studies met the inclusion criteria. The biomechanical risk factors: trochlear dysplasia, increased tibial tuberosity-trochlear groove distance (TT-TG), an...
There is strong evidence in the literature that abnormalities of bony stabilizers, trochlear dysplasia, increased TT-TG distance, and patella alta are risk factors for patella dislocation. There is le...
Level IV....
Patella alta is an anatomic risk factor for patellar instability in adolescents that is also linked to the risk factor of trochlear dysplasia. This study aims to determine the age of onset and age-rel...
A retrospective cross-sectional cohort of patients was collected with the following inclusion criteria: patients aged 5 to 18 who had a knee magnetic resonance imaging performed from 2000 to 2022 and ...
The 140 knees included in the cohort had an average age of 13.9 years (SD=2.40; range: 8-18) and were 55% female. Patella alta was present in 78 knees (55.7%) using CDI>=1.2 and in 59 knees (42.1%) us...
Patella alta, as defined by CDI, is seen in patients as young as 8 years old. Patellar height ratios do not change with age in patients with patellar dislocation, suggesting that patella alta is estab...
Level III-diagnostic, cross-sectional....
