Purpose; The purpose of the present study was to evaluate of patella elevation (patellar height) and trochlear groove angle in individuals with and without medial patellofemoral ligament rupture for surgical reconstruction and possible clinical use.Materials and Methods; The study had a retrospective design, and included 149 people (53 females, 96 men) who were between the ages of 18 and 36 admitting to the Orthopedic Clinic of Bartın State Hospital with various complaints in knee joints and different preliminary diagnoses between January 2005 and December 2020. 61 of the 149 people in the study were patients with medial patellofemoral rupture. Two groups were examined, those with and without medial patellofemoral rupture.Results; As a result of the study, while significant differences were detected in trochlear groove angle, there wasn’t significant differences in patella elevation (patellar height) between the groups (with and without medial patellofemoral ligament rupture).Conclusion; Patella elevation (patellar height) was similar in the group with and without medial patellofemoral rupture, while a significant difference was found in the trochlear groove angle. |
