Patellar tendon rupture after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a rare complication which usually occurs in the early postoperative period during rehabilitation. The management of open avulsions from tibial tuberosity has not been clearly defined yet. We describe a previously unreported case of traumatic and open patellar tendon avulsion from tibial tuberosity one year following ACL reconstruction in an elite football player which was successfully treated with suture anchors.

Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction normalizes patellar kinematics but fails to predict cartilage contact area: A prospective 3D MRI study.

Introduction: The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the main patellar stabilizer in low knee flexion degrees (0-30°). Isolated MPFL reconstruction (MPFLr) is therefore considered the gold standard of surgical procedures for low flexion patellofemoral instabilities (PFIs). Despite excellent clinical results, little is known about the effect of MPFLr on kinematic parameters (KPs) of the patellofemoral joint in vivo.

Background: Hemophilic arthritis (HA) is associated with significant changes in the morphology of mature knee joints due to abnormal growth plate development. Previous studies have established marked distinctions between the femur and tibia of subjects with Haemophilia and those with osteoarthritis (OA). This study explored the morphological characteristics of the patella and patellofemoral joint in subjects with Haemophilia.
