| define trochlea: Aspects of Femoral Trochlear Dysplasia Lars Blønd, 2024-04-25 Maybe it´s the strange name, but it's extraordinary how little attention the common condition in the knee named trochlear dysplasia (which means a flat groove in the kneecap) has received. Contrary to popular belief, at least in its mild forms, trochlear dysplasia is a common knee condition and doctors, orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, and chiropractors who see, guide, and treat patients with anterior knee pain, unstable kneecaps, and osteoarthritis of the knee, should know about trochlear dysplasia. What causes the condition, what are the symptoms and how can we assess it? This book – which is the first of its kind – is a reference work, serving as a compendium for trochlear dysplasia, based on available scientific literature concerning trochlear dysplasia and adjacent areas, such as operations like trochleoplasty. Radiologists in particular who must assess the degree of trochlear dysplasia should immerse themselves in the relevant imaging options. |

| define trochlea: Patellofemoral Disorders Roland M. Biedert, 2005-07-08 Patellofemoral complaints are a major problem for all those working in sports medicine and orthopaedics. The correct diagnosis at an early stage is essential if subsequent treatment is to be successful and secondary complications are to be avoided. Written by an internationally known team of experts this book looks at the various diagnostic techniques currently available, cites examples of unsuccessful treatments and proposes the most appropriate ones on the proven basis of the latest research. The core of the book is the 20 case studies ranging from simple non-operative treatment to multi-operated patients with salvage procedures. The underlying theme of the book is that treatment of patellofemoral problems must, in the first instance, be somewhat conservative. Surgical interventions should be performed in a response to a clear underlying pathology and only after non-operative treatment has failed. Patellofemoral Disorders is enhanced by the inclusion of some superb specially drawn illustrations and numerous colour photographs in the case studies section. |
