Background: The patellar tendon advancement (PTA) procedure, often coupled with a distal femoral extension osteotomy (DFEO), is increasingly used to treat persistent crouch gait. In this study, we investigated relationships between patella position, knee flexion, and the patellar tendon moment arm ...
RESULTS: Approximately 80% of the knees exhibited patella alta prior to surgery. Post-operatively, 86% of the knees exhibited patella baja. The surgically altered patella position produced a 13% increase in the patellar tendon moment arm in extended knee postures, which agreed well with model ...

the thigh. These muscles consist of the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, vastus intermedius, and the rectus femoris. The most common muscle to injure is the rectus femoris as it crosses both the hip and the knee joint (where the others only cross the knee joint via the patellar tendon)....
