The lateral patellofemoral joint soft tissues contain key structures that surround and balance the joint. These structures can affect joint tracking, stability, and force distribution. It is important to understand the lateral patellofemoral anatomy and biomechanics, and their relationship with patellofemoral instability, anterior knee pain, and osteoarthritis. Lateral-sided surgical procedures such as lateral release, lateral retinacular lengthening, and partial lateral patellar facetectomy can be useful in the treatment of such patellofemoral problems.
髌股外侧关节的软组织包含了环绕和平衡关节的关键结构。这些结构可以影响关节的轨迹、稳定性和力的分布。了解髌股外侧的解剖和生物力学,以及它们与髌股关节不稳定、前膝疼痛和骨关节炎的关系,是很重要的。外侧手术如外侧松解、外侧支持带延长和部分外侧髌骨面切除术,可以用于治疗此类髌股问题。
