Aspects of Femoral Trochlear Dysplasia

Maybe it´s the strange name, but it's extraordinary how little attention the common condition in the knee named trochlear dysplasia (which means a flat groove in the kneecap) has received. Contrary to popular belief, at least in its mild forms, trochlear dysplasia is a common knee condition and doctors, orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, and chiropractors who see, guide, and treat patients with anterior knee pain, unstable kneecaps, and osteoarthritis of the knee, should know about trochlear dysplasia. What causes the condition, what are the symptoms and how can we assess it? This book – which is the first of its kind – is a reference work, serving as a compendium for trochlear dysplasia, based on available scientific literature concerning trochlear dysplasia and adjacent areas, such as operations like trochleoplasty. Radiologists in particular who must assess the degree of trochlear dysplasia should immerse themselves in the relevant imaging options.

Patellar Instability Surgery in Clinical Practice

Among all the extensor mechanism pathologies, lateral patellar instability is of great interest not only for the knee specialist, but also for the general orthopedic surgeon and trainee. The procedure that is most frequently performed to treat lateral patellar instability is the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction. The reason for this great interest in this procedure is obvious. Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is the most frequently performed procedure in the extensor mechanism. It also is the most predictable and has the best clinical results of all the procedures in the extensor mechanism. In this handbook we analyse the different reconstruction techniques, step by step, for the MPFL reconstruction, as well as other techniques less frequently used in the patient with lateral patellofemoral instability. We also analyse the treatment of medial patellofemoral instability. It is a very practical book, aimed at the general orthopedic surgeon and also the ones specialized in the knee.
