patella

nounPlural patellae pəˈtɛləpəˈtɛlə

- The patella, or kneecap, is a floating bone within the tendon of the quadriceps muscle group.
- The goal is restoration and maintenance of balance of the patella within the trochlea.
- Tendons - these are tough bands that join the muscles of the upper and lower leg, and also hold the patella (knee cap) in place.
- A vertical incision is made over the pes anserinus insertion halfway between the medial border of the patella ligament and the posterior margin of the tibia.
- The joint is held in place by ligaments and covered at the front by the patella (kneecap).
- Encourage the patient to relax the quadriceps and push the patella medially back into place.
- For example, resurfacing of the patella with a patellar button is practised routinely, selectively, or not at all.
- No other patient had an articular cartilage injury of the patella, trochlea, or tibia.
- Twelve distal femoral condyles, proximal tibial condyles, and patellae were harvested; all soft tissue was removed.

Anatomy

Revision ACL reconstruction when both patellar tendons have already been harvested is an unusual situation.
Example sentencesExamples
- There was one patellar fracture and one patellar tendon rupture.
- Physical examination revealed pale skin and mucous membranes, as well as bilaterally decreased patellar and Achilles tendon reflexes.
- In this series of operations, we used suture anchor devices to fix the free ends of the split patellar tendon to the talus and the calcaneus.

- The capsule also is reinforced in front by the patellar and quadriceps tendons and posteriorly by the popliteus and gastrocnemius muscles.
- In 10 specimens, the tibia with attached patellar tendon and patella was harvested by removal of all connecting tissue.
- The lower, tendinous portions of these muscles help to encapsulate the knee joint, and the central component of the quadriceps forms the strong patellar tendon, connected to the knee cap.
- The use of patellar tendon autografts for ACL reconstruction is very widespread and is thought to render good, reproducible clinical results.
- The retinaculum and patellar tendon are richly innervated with free nerve endings.
- Deep tendon reflexes of the patellar and Achilles tendon were normal.
- Another option would have been to stage two procedures using ipsilateral patellar tendon autografts.
- No significant difference in total mean chondrocyte density between trochlear, patellar, tibial, and femoral condyles was observed.
- The quadriceps muscles act on the knee through the quadriceps and patellar tendons.
- A 10 cm longitudinal skin incision was made in the midline of patellar tendon.
- Episodes of giving way are consistent with some degree of knee instability and may indicate patellar subluxation or ligamentous rupture.
- Routine closure was performed with closure of the patellar peritenon in the patellar tendon group.
- The patellar ligament makes its last appearance in this section.
- On the anterior surface toward the upper end of the tibia is the tibial tuberosity which is also an attachment point for the patellar ligament.
- The patellar branch of the saphenous nerve may arise from the nerve to vastus medialis.

patellate

adjective pəˈtɛlət

Anatomy

Thus, calice size may have been a factor (as discussed below), along with having a larger area for distribution of weight, which may account for the abundance of trochoid and patellate shapes in H. halli living on and in soft mud.

Origin

Late 16th century: from Latin, diminutive of patina 'shallow dish', from Greek patanē (see paten).
