BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:555. [PMID: 39020350 PMCID: PMC11253468 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07579-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024] Open
Abstract
HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE The prevalence of trochlear dysplasia is common in different populations. BACKGROUND The prevalence of trochlear dysplasia in the general population, categorised by sex, race, age, and body mass index, has been sparse. This study aimed to define the prevalence of trochlear dysplasia based on the latter categories. STUDY DESIGN Cohort retrospective study. METHODS 1162 skeletal mature healthy femora were obtained from a CT-scan-based modelling system (SOMA). Thin slice CT scans were acquired exclusively for medical indications such as polytrauma (20%), CT angiography (70%) and other reasons (i.e. Total Joint Replacement) (10%). Trochlear dysplasia was measured using Pfirmann's method. Patient demographics such as age, race and sex were recorded. RESULTS The overall prevalence of trochlear dysplasia is 4.5% and is far more common in Asian female patients compared to Caucasian, African and Middle Eastern knees. CONCLUSION Overall, the prevalence of dysplasia in the general population was determined to be 4.5%, with female patients being more likely to suffer from the condition. Patients of Asian and Caucasian race were more likely to have trochlear dysplasia, while Middle Eastern male patients displayed more dysplastic values than their female counterparts.

Abstract
Patellofemoral pain and instability are common indications for imaging that are encountered in everyday practice. The authors comprehensively review key aspects of patellofemoral instability pertinent to radiologists that can be seen before the onset of osteoarthritis, highlighting the anatomy, clinical evaluation, diagnostic imaging, and treatment. Regarding the anatomy, the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the primary static soft-tissue restraint to lateral patellar displacement and is commonly reconstructed surgically in patients with MPFL dysfunction and patellar instability. Osteoarticular abnormalities that predispose individuals to patellar instability include patellar malalignment, trochlear dysplasia, and tibial tubercle lateralization. Clinically, patients with patellar instability may be divided into two broad groups with imaging findings that sometimes overlap: patients with a history of overt patellar instability after a traumatic event (eg, dislocation, subluxation) and patients without such a history. In terms of imaging, radiography is generally the initial examination of choice, and MRI is the most common cross-sectional examination performed preoperatively. For all imaging techniques, there has been a proliferation of published radiologic measurement methods. The authors summarize the most common validated measurements for patellar malalignment, trochlear dysplasia, and tibial tubercle lateralization. Given that static imaging is inherently limited in the evaluation of patellar motion, dynamic imaging with US, CT, or MRI may be requested by some surgeons. The primary treatment strategy for patellofemoral pain is conservative. Surgical treatment options include MPFL reconstruction with or without osseous corrections such as trochleoplasty and tibial tubercle osteotomy. Postoperative complications evaluated at imaging include patellar fracture, graft failure, graft malposition, and medial patellar subluxation. ©RSNA, 2023 Quiz questions for this article are available in the supplemental material.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD) occurs in people who have their own patellofemoral dysplasia and who have not been properly treated after their first patellar dislocation. For RPD where conservative treatment is ineffective, medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is the first choice for surgical treatment, but there are various and controversial ways of MPFL reconstruction and fixation. Initially, more scholars adopted the patellar lateral tunneling (PT) approach to contain and stabilize the graft, but with the newer materials and techniques, some experts adopted the lateral patellar anchor fixation (AF) of the graft, which can avoid the collateral damage caused by the patellar lateral tunneling and can obtain the same definite efficacy. Therefore, a meta-analysis must be performed to provide evidence whether there is a difference between AF and PT reconstruction of the MPFL in the treatment of RPD. METHODS We will search, with no time restriction, without any restriction of language and status, the time from the establishment of the database to October 2022, on the following databases: PubMed (MEDLINE), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data (WF), Chinese Scientific Journals Database (VIP), and Chinese databases SinoMed (CBM) electronic databases. The electronic database search will be supplemented by a manual search of the reference lists of included articles. We will apply the risk-of-bias tool of the Cochrane Collaboration for randomized controlled trials to assess the methodological quality. Risk-of-Bias Assessment Tool for Non-randomized Studies was used to evaluate the quality of comparative studies. Statistical analysis will be conducted using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS This systematic review and meta-analysis will evaluate the functional outcomes of the two fixation modalities, AF and PT, in reconstructing MPFL for RPD. CONCLUSION The findings of this study will provide a basis for clinical judgment of whether there is a difference between the two forms of AF and PT reconstructed MPFL for RPD.
