The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of hallux valgus (HV) in patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Ninety-nine patients with unilateral patellofemoral pain participated. The study was designed with each subject acting as their own internal control by using the unaffected limb for comparison. The HV and intermetatarsal angles were measured by weight-bearing anteroposterior radiographs in patients. Eighty-four out of 99 patients had an abnormal HV angle on the affected side and 78 of 99 patients had an abnormal HV angle on the unaffected side. There were significant differences in the HV angle between affected and unaffected sides (P = 0.003). This study is the first to demonstrate the relationship between HV and PFPS. Further comprehensive biomechanical studies are warranted to analyse the relationship between HV and PFPS.
本研究旨在探讨拇外翻（HV）与髌股关节疼痛综合征（PFPS）之间的关系。99 例单侧髌股关节疼痛患者参与了研究。该研究采用自身对照设计，以健侧肢体作为对照。通过负重前后位 X 线片测量患者的 HV 和跖骨间角。99 例患者中，84 例患侧 HV 角异常，78 例健侧 HV 角异常。患侧与健侧 HV 角差异有统计学意义（P = 0.003）。本研究首次证明了 HV 与 PFPS 之间的关系。需要进一步进行全面的生物力学研究来分析 HV 与 PFPS 之间的关系。
