Abstract
Objective Knee replacement (KR) is the last-resort treatment for knee osteoarthritis. Although radiographic evidence of tibiofemoral joint has been widely adopted for prognostication, patellofemoral joint has gained little attention and may hold additional value for further improvements. We aimed to quantitatively analyse patellofemoral joint through radiomics analysis of lateral view radiographs for improved KR risk prediction. Design From the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study dataset, we retrospectively retrieved the initial-visit lateral left knee radiographs of 2943 patients aged 50 to 79. They were split into training and test cohorts at a 2:1 ratio. A comprehensive set of radiomic features were extracted within the best-performing subregion of patellofemoral joint and combined into a radiomics score (RadScore). A KR risk score, derived from Kellgren-Lawrence grade (KLG) of tibiofemoral joint and RadScore of patellofemoral joint, was developed by multivariate Cox regression and assessed using time-dependent area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results While patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA) was insignificant during multivariate analysis, RadScore was identified as an independent risk factor (multivariate Cox p-value < 0.001) for KR. The subgroup analysis revealed that RadScore was particularly effective in predicting rapid progressor (KR occurrence before 30 months) among early- (KLG < 2) and mid-stage (KLG = 2) patients. Combining two joints radiographic information, the AUC reached 0.89/0.87 for predicting 60-month KR occurrence. Conclusions The RadScore of the patellofemoral joint on lateral radiographs emerges as an independent prognostic factor for improving KR prognosis prediction. The KR risk score could be instrumental in managing progressive knee osteoarthritis interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cell-based cartilage repair procedures of the patellofemoral joint have less reliable outcomes than those of the tibiofemoral joint. No previous studies have evaluated the influence of patellar shape on cell-based cartilage repair outcomes. Patellar dysplasia may predispose patients to worse outcomes after cell-based cartilage repair. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between Wiberg patellar type and outcomes after cell-based cartilage repair (autologous chondrocyte implantation or particulated juvenile allograft cartilage transplantation) for the treatment of patellar chondral lesions at a minimum 2-year follow-up. It was hypothesized that Wiberg classification of patellar shape would have no effect on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) or graft survival. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients undergoing autologous chondrocyte implantation or particulated juvenile allograft cartilage transplantation for full-thickness patellar chondral defects between 2016 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed after institutional review board approval. The change in PROMs, including International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC), Kujala, and Veterans RAND 12-item Health Survey Mental and Physical scores, from pre- to postoperatively and the percentage of patients who achieved the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for IKDC and Kujala scores were compared for the Wiberg type A versus Wiberg type B versus Wiberg type C groups. The log-rank test was used to evaluate for differences in survival between subgroups. RESULTS A total of 59 patients (63 knees) were included, with a mean age of 33.3 ± 8.6 years, median body mass index of 26.0 (IQR, 21.8-30.2), and median follow-up time of 3.5 years (IQR, 2.6-4.2 years). In total, 26 (41%) patellae were Wiberg type A, 29 (46%) were Wiberg type B, and 8 (13%) were Wiberg type C. There were no differences between Wiberg type A versus Wiberg type B versus Wiberg type C groups with respect to change in PROMs from pre- to postoperatively or the percentage of patients who achieved the MCID for IKDC or Kujala scores (P > .05 for all). There were no differences in survival between groups (P = .45). CONCLUSION Wiberg patellar type has no effect on patient-reported outcomes or graft survival at midterm follow-up. Patellar dysplasia should not be seen as a contraindication for cell-based cartilage repair procedures.

Morphometric Parameters and MRI Morphological Changes of the Knee and Patella in Physically Active Adolescents. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:medicina59020213. [PMID: 36837415 PMCID: PMC9965593 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59020213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: The immature skeleton in a pediatric population exposed to frequent physical activity might be extremely prone to injuries, with possible consequences later in adulthood. The main aim of this study is to present specific morphometric parameters and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) morphological changes of the knee and patella in a physically active pediatric population. Additionally, we wanted to investigate the morphological risk factors for patellar instability. Materials and Methods: The study included the MRI findings of 193 physically active pediatric patients with knee pain. The participants underwent sports activities for 5 to 8 h per week. Two divisions were performed: by age and by patellar type. We evaluated three age groups: group 1 (age 11-14), group 2 (age 15-17), and group 3 (age 18-21 years). In addition, participants were divided by the patellar type (according to Wiberg) into three groups. The following morphometric parameters were calculated: lateral trochlear inclination (LTI), the tibial tubercle-trochlear groove distance (TT-TG), trochlear facet asymmetry (TFA), Insall-Salvati index, modified Insall-Salvati index, Caton-Deschamps index, articular overlap, morphology ratio and contact surface ratio. Results: We found a statistically significant association between patellar type groups in LTI (p < 0.001), TFA (p < 0.001), Insal-Salvati (p = 0.001) index, and Caton-Deschamps index (p = 0.018). According to age groups, we found statistical significance in the Caton-Deschamps index (p = 0.039). The most frequent knee injury parameter, according to Wiberg, in physically active pediatric patients was patella type 2 in boys and type 3 in girls. Conclusions: The MRI morphometric parameters observed in our study might be factors of prediction of knee injury in physically active children. In addition, it might be very useful in sports programs to improve the biomechanics of the knee in order to reduce the injury rate in sports-active children.

Knee 2022; 37:95-102. [PMID: 35752140 DOI: 10.1016/j.knee.2022.06.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Revised: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 06/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Trochleoplasty is a recognized surgical technique to address severe trochlear dysplasia. The clinical and radiological outcomes of trochleoplasty surgery in trochlear dysplasia have been well reported. There is a paucity in literature regarding the correlation between trochleoplasty and quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study is to measure the improvement in QoL, in patients with severe trochlear dysplasia and recurrent patellar instability following trochleoplasty. METHODS Between 2013 and 2019, 51 trochleoplasty cases were performed in 48 patients. They were identified from our prospectively kept database. All operations were performed by a fellowship trained consultant sports knee surgeon. Functional outcomes and QoL scores were assessed using Kujala, IKDC and EQ-5D index. Objective outcomes were obtained following each patient's latest follow-up assessment. RESULTS The mean age at operation was 22y (SD ± 4.7, range 14-37y) and the mean follow-up period was 21.6 months (SD ± 15.2, range 12-60 months). The mean Kujala score improved from 58.1 (SD 14.9) to 77.9 (SD 17.3) at latest follow-up (p < 0.001). The mean IKDC score improved from 40.5 (SD 14.2) to 69.5 (SD 22.8) at latest follow up (p < 0.001). The mean EQ-5D index also improved from 0.593 (SD 0.257) to 0.824 (SD 0.189) at latest follow-up (p = 0.003). A higher Body Mass Index (BMI; >30 kg/m2) was associated with inferior outcomes. CONCLUSION Trochleoplasty is an effective surgical technique which improves the QoL in patients suffering from patellar instability secondary to severe trochlear dysplasia. BMI can be used to predict post-operative outcomes.

Abstract
Background
Despite higher incidence of patellofemoral pain (PFP) and consequently morbidity, the understanding about PF factors leading to PF arthritis is way lacking.
Material and Methods
A prospective study of first 80 patients who were diagnosed with chondromalacia patella (CMP) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) divided into early and late CMP groups were evaluated clinically, radiologically, and in terms of functional outcome.
Results
: Quadriceps angle, Clark’s test, and Insall–Salvati ratio results were nonsignificant despite greater values were observed in late CMP group, whereas trochlear morphology results (sulcus angle: 153:138 degrees and sulcus depth 3.9:5.4 mm) and clinical scores were significant in late CMP group (Kujala’s score: 61:78, whereas PF pain score: 43:25). Type-C patellar morphology was found in greater number in late CMP cohort.
Conclusion
Trochlear and patellar morphologies along with clinical scores play a key role in understanding of the CMP.

Abstract
Background Only a few studies have described the effect of full arthroscopic surgery in treatment of excessive lateral pressure syndrome (ELPS). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy and experience of total arthroscopic lateral retinacular (LR) release and lateral patelloplasty for the treatment of ELPS. Methods A total of 73 patients (88 knees) with ELPS underwent arthroscopic LR release and lateral patelloplasty. The visual analogue scale (VAS), Kujala score, Lysholm scores, patella medial pushing distance, patellar tilt angle (PTA), and lateral patellofemoral angle (LPFA) were measured and evaluated before and after surgery. Results Follow-up ranged from 12 to 36 months with an average of 24 ± 5.8 months. The VAS was significantly lower at the last follow-up than before surgery (P < 0.01). The patella medial pushing distance, Kujala score, Lysholm score, PTA, and LPFA were significantly higher at the last follow-up than before surgery (P < 0.01, respectively). Years and lateral patella Outerbridge classification at the last follow-up have negative correlation with Kujala score, Lysholm score, Patella medial pushing distance, PTA, and LPFA (P < 0.01, respectively) and have positive correlation with VAS (P < 0.01, respectively). Related complications were not reported. Conclusions Full arthroscopic LR release combined with lateral patelloplasty in the treatment of ELPS is an effective minimally invasive method, which can effectively correct anomalies of force line and skeleton of patella, relieve pain, and restore knee joint motor function with less complications.

Patellar facet ratio affects knee pain, stair climbing and stair descent after TKA without patellar resurfacing. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2020; 28:3796-3804. [PMID: 31989190 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-020-05868-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2019] [Accepted: 01/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether knee pain or functional impairment after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) without patellar resurfacing are correlated with preoperative patellar morphology or postoperative patellar orientation. The hypotheses were that patellar shape, increased tilt and lateral displacement would be associated with pain and functional impairment. METHODS From a consecutive series of 152 knees that received a cemented postero-stabilized TKA, the Oxford Knee Score (OKS) and the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) were collected at a minimum follow-up of 12 months. Uni- and multi-variable linear regression analyses were performed to determine associations between the collected clinical scores and patient demographics and patellar morphology, measured from pre- and post-operative frontal, lateral and skyline view radiographs. RESULTS The OKS was 75 ± 23, whereas the KOOS pain, stair climbing, and descent were respectively 77 ± 24, 3.9 ± 1.1 and 3.8 ± 1.2. OKS was not associated with any radiographic outcomes, whereas KOOS pain was better for knees with larger medial patellar facets. The KOOS stair climbing and descent were also better for knees with larger medial patellar facets. CONCLUSION The findings of this study partly confirm the hypotheses that pain and functional impairments after TKA without patellar resurfacing are associated with patellar shape. No association was revealed between postoperative patellar orientation and function nor pain. Quantitative consideration of patellar congruency could therefore prevent pain and improve function after TKA without patellar resurfacing. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Retrospective study, Level III.

Abstract
Background and objectives: tremor is an unintentional and rhythmic movement of any part of the body that is a typical symptom of Essential Tremor (ET). ET impairs the quality of life of patients and is treated with pharmacotherapy. We investigated the tremor reduction efficacy of an innovative vibrational medical device (IMD) in ET patients. Materials and Methods: we conducted a prospective, single-center, single-arm, pragmatic study in ET patients with an extended safety study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Vilim Ball-a local hand-arm vibration device that produces vibrations in the frequency range of 8-18 Hz and amplitude from 0 to 2 mm. The primary endpoint was the decrease in the power spectrum after device use. The secondary endpoints were safety outcomes. Results: In total, 17 patients with ET were included in the main study, and no patients withdrew from the main study. The tremor power spectrum (m2/s3 Hz) was lower after the device use, represented as the mean (standard deviation): 0.106 (0.221); median (Md) 0.009 with the interquartile range; IQR, 0.087 vs. 0.042 (0.078); Md = 0.009 with the IQR 0.012; Wilcoxon signed-rank test V = 123; and p = 0.027. Seven patients reported that vibrational therapy was not effective. Two patients reported an increase in tremor after using the device. In the extended safety study, we included 51 patients: 31 patients with ET and 20 with Parkinsonian tremor, where 48 patients reported an improvement in tremor symptoms and 49 in function. No serious adverse events were reported, while two patients in the Parkinsonian tremor group reported a lack of efficacy of the proposed medical device. Conclusions: the device reduces essential tremor in some patients and is safe to use in ET.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have reported patellofemoral cartilage degeneration and analyzed the factors affecting degeneration after open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO). However, no studies have evaluated patellofemoral cartilage degeneration or examined the factors affecting degeneration after closed-wedge high tibial osteotomy (CWHTO). PURPOSE To investigate and compare patellofemoral cartilage degeneration after CWHTO and OWHTO via arthroscopic evaluation and to analyze the factors affecting the degeneration. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS A total of 54 CWHTOs and 50 OWHTOs were performed with first-look arthroscopy between 2013 and 2017 at one institution. Hardware removal and second-look arthroscopy were performed, on average, 30.2 months after CWHTO and 26.8 months after OWHTO (P = .178). Patient characteristics did not differ significantly between the groups. Radiographically, the mechanical axis, posterior tibial slope, and modified Blackburne-Peel ratio were evaluated. Arthroscopically, the percentage of patient with patellofemoral cartilage degeneration was evaluated according to the International Cartilage Repair Society grading system. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the factors affecting patellofemoral cartilage degeneration in terms of demographics and the change of mechanical axis (correction angle), tibial posterior slope angle, and modified Blackburne-Peel ratio. The Anterior Knee Pain Scale was used for clinical comparison between the patellofemoral degenerative and nondegenerative groups. RESULTS No significant differences were observed in pre- and postoperative radiographic results between the CWHTO and OWHTO groups, except that the postoperative modified Blackburne-Peel ratio was significantly smaller among the OWHTOs. The percentage of patients with patellofemoral cartilage degeneration were 29.6% in the CWHTO group and 44% in the OWHTO group (P = .156) at second-look arthroscopy. The correction angle was the only significant factor affecting cartilage degeneration in the CWHTO group (odds ratio, 2.324; P = .013; cutoff value, 9.6°) and the OWHTO group (odds ratio, 1.440; P = .041; cutoff value, 10.1°). The postoperative Anterior Knee Pain Scale score was significantly lower in the patellofemoral degenerative group as compared with the nondegenerative group among the OWHTO group (81.6 vs 76.4; P = .039); among the CWHTO group, there was a lower tendency in the degenerative group, but this was without significance (81.1 vs 79.6; P = .367). CONCLUSION Patellofemoral cartilage degeneration progressed after CWHTO and OWHTO with large alignment correction. High tibial osteotomy should be selected with careful consideration of the osteoarthritic status of the patellofemoral joint and required correction angle, regardless of applying a closed- or open-wedge technique.
