Shortening of patellar tendon after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) was previously reported by several studies. Its etiology still remains controversial. Patellar tendon shortening, a direct cause of patella baja, has a dramatic negative impact in terms of clinical outcomes after TKA. Main objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of utilizing a different technique with Ultrasound that is easy to use, cost-effective and able to eliminate the problem of differential magnification occurring in other techniques which count on standard x-rays and to establish the correlation between clinical outcomes and changes in
