Post-Graduate Orthopedic Instruction - Images. Answer to Case Study
Abstract
Patellar tendon-lateral femoral condyle friction syndrome is discussed, a condition that has received little attention in orthopedic literature. In many cases, it is an incidental finding on MRI when there is no clinical suspicion or even confirmation of Hoffa fat pad impingement (FPI) syndrome. Identification of pathognomonic findings on imaging studies is key, both for selecting the adequate treatment option and to distinguish this condition from other causes of anterior knee pain. Although there is currently no definitive etiology for the syndrome, its identification is important for both diagnosis and treatment.Downloads
