Numerous complications following total knee replacement (TKR)
relate to the patellofemoral (PF) joint, including pain and patellar
maltracking, yet the options for A total of three knees with end-stage osteoarthritis and three
knees that had undergone TKR at more than one year’s follow-up were
investigated. In each knee, sequential biplane radiological images
were acquired from the sagittal direction (i.e. horizontal X-ray
source and 10° below horizontal) for a sequence of eight flexion
angles. Three-dimensional implant or bone models were matched to
the biplane images to compute the six degrees of freedom of PF tracking
and TF kinematics, and other clinical measures.Objectives
