Bronstein, MD The knee is one of the most commonly injured joints in the body. Its Joseph C. Schaffer, MD superficial anatomy enables diagnosis of the injury through a thorough history and physical examination. Examination techniques for the knee described decades ago are still useful, as are more recently developed tests. Proper use of these techniques requires understanding of the anatomy and biomechanical principles of the knee as well as the pathophysiology of the injuries, including tears to the menisci and extensor mechanism, patellofemoral conditions, and osteochondritis dissecans.

  • Pathophysiology of Anterior Knee Pain
    1 Patellofemoral Online Education Pathophysiology of Anterior Knee Pain Vicente Sanchis-Alfonso, MD, PhD The original publication is available at www.springerlink.com INTRODUCTION Anterior knee pain, diagnosed as Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS), is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders [61]. It is of high socioeconomic relevance as it occurs most frequently in young and active patients. The rate is around 15-33% in active adult population and 21-45% of adolescents [36]. However, in spite of its high incidence and abundance of clinical and basic science research, its pathogenesis is still an enigma (“The Black Hole of Orthopaedics”). The numerous treatment regimes that exist for PFPS highlight the lack of knowledge regarding the etiology of pain. The present review synthesizes our research on pathophysiology [53-62] of anterior knee pain in the young patient. BACKGROUND: CHONDROMALACIA PATELLAE, PATELLOFEMORAL MALALIGMENT, TISSUE HOMEOSTASIS THEORY Until the end of the 1960’s anterior knee pain was attributed to chondromalacia patellae, a concept from the beginnings of the 20th century that, from a clinical point of view, is of no value, and ought to be abandoned, given that it has no diagnostic, therapeutic or prognostic implications. In fact, many authors have failed to find a connection between anterior knee pain and chondromalacia [52, 61]. Currently, however, there is growing evidence that a subgroup of patients with chondral lesions may have a component of their 2 pain related to that lesion due to the overload of the subchondral bone interface which is richly innervated. In the 1970’s anterior knee pain was related to the presence of patellofemoral malaligment (PFM) [14, 24, 26, 40].

Learmonth Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, Bristol Road South, Birmingham B31 2AP, UK Received 30 October 2005; received in revised form 20 August 2006; accepted 21 August 2006 Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the mid- and long-term outcome of the modified Elmslie–Trillat procedure, as well as to detect factors affecting it. Thirty-eight patients (44 procedures) with a mean age of 31 years were included in this study. The reason for operation was patellar instability in 10 cases, anterior knee pain with malalignment of the extensor mechanism in 15 cases and a combination of both in 19 cases. Patients were followed for an average of 40 months (range=18–130 months). The functional outcome was very satisfactory or satisfactory for 73% of patients. According to Cox's criteria it was excellent in 13 cases (30%), good in 18 (41%), fair in 7 (16%) and poor in the remaining 6 (13%). Patients scored an average of 3.5 (range=2–8) in their Tegner Activity Scale, while their score in Activities of Daily Living Scale of the Knee Outcome Survey ranged from 43 to 98 (average=76). Result analysis revealed a better functional outcome when the operation was performed for patellar instability, as well as in the absence of grade 3 or 4 chondral changes in the patellofemoral joint at the time of operation. Elmslie–Trillat procedure satisfactorily restores patellofemoral stability and offers a very good functional outcome, especially in the absence of significant chondral changes in the patellofemoral joint at the time of operation.

  • Anterior Knee Pain
    Page 1 of 4 Anterior Knee Pain Anterior knee pain is common with a variety of causes.[1] It is important to make a careful assessment of the underlying cause in order to ensure appropriate management and advice, Common causes [2] Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) PFPS is defined as pain behind or around the patella, caused by stress in the patellofemoral joint. PFPS is common. Symptoms are usually provoked by climbing stairs, squatting, and sitting with flexed knees for long periods of time.[3] PFPS seems to be multifactorial, resulting from a complex interaction between intrinsic anatomy and external training factors.[4] Pain and dysfunction often result from either abnormal forces or prolonged repetitive compressive or shearing forces between the patella and the femur. Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common cause of knee pain in adolescents and young adults, especially among those who are physically active and regularly participate in sports. Although PFPS most often presents in adolescents and young adults, it can occur at any age. Over half of all cases are bilateral (but one side is often more affected than the other). The potential causes of PFPS remain controversial but include overuse, overloading and misuse of the patellofemoral joint. Underlying causes of PFPS include: Overuse of the knee - eg, in sporting activities. Minor problems in the alignment of the knee. Foot problems - eg, flat feet. Repeated minor injuries to the knee. Joint hypermobility affecting the knee. Reduced muscle strength in the leg. Physiotherapy and foot orthoses are often used in the management of PFPS.[5] Other common causes of anterior knee pain in adolescents These include: Osgood-Schlatter disease See the separate article on Osgood-Schlatter Disease.

Abstract he knee, largest of human joints, is compound joint. Despite its single cavity in man, it is convenient to describe it as two condylar joints between the femur and T tibia and a sellar joint between the patella and femur. The former are partly divided by menisci between corresponding articular surfaces. The level of the joint is at the (palpable) proximal margins of the tibial condyles. Being too complex, the knee joint is prone to have a number of disorders. To study these problems, one must be thoroughly acquainted with anatomy and normal movements of the knee joint. Then after a very keen case taking as well as physical, radiological and pathological examinations needed, the correct diagnosis, prognosis and only then the remedial diagnosis could be made to meet the cure. Anatomy of Knee Joint One should study the following in detail from some standard books on anatomy- Articular Surfaces, Fibrous Capsule, Synovial Membrane, Bursae, The ligaments of the knee, Menisci, Vessels and Nerve Supply to the Joint. The extensor mechanism of the knee Extension of the knee is produced by the quadriceps muscle acting through the quadriceps ligament, patella, patellar ligament and tibial tubercle. Weakness of extension- It leads to instability, repeated joint trauma and effusion.
