A knee support is provided for opposing excessive or abnormal strain or torque on the joint. The support has a pair of pivotally interconnected rigid braces one of which snugly embraces the front of the thigh just above the patella and the other of which snugly embraces the front of the ...
The LPT-(as the angle between the longest patella diameter and posterior aspect of condyles) was measured using the axial knee MRI. Associations of LPT (every 5° increase) with MRI OA Knee Scoring-(MOAKS) for OA-related features, including cartilage and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in ...
allowing the patella to drift medially into a subluxed position. As the knee passively flexes in subsequent stages, the patella violently re-enters the groove as seen clinically during the novel subluxation exam in our patients as described above. These patients had great difficulty with the mer...
To create a 3D reconstruction of the knee, we used the ZIOSTATION software package (Ziosoft Inc., Tokyo, Japan). To evaluate femoral TW, the tibia, patella, and medial femoral condyle were removed from the 3D model, because it was necessary to visualize the lateral wall of the inter...

All patients were operated on with open and extensive arthrotomy, by internal parapatellar approach lateralising the patella and with preventative ischaemia, in order to appropriately fill and compact the cancellous bone and mark out the mesh area better (Image 1). We used the anterior and medial...
ObjectivePatellar bracing is a mechanical treatment strategy for patellofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) that aims to unload the lateral compartment of the joint by translating the patella medially. Our objective was to determine whether a patellar brace can correct patellar kinematics in patients with ...
(PROM) of knee flexion in both legs and thigh circumference on both sides were measured at the mid-patella and 5, 10, and 15 cm above the patella to examine muscular atrophy. These measurements were taken at 4, 25, and 38 days after surgery, and after a 10-year follow-up, the ...
