Abstract

Introduction: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) affects almost one-third of adults aged over 65 years and is associated with significant personal and economic burden. The patellofemoral joint (PFJ), one of the three knee joint compartments, is the focus of this research since it is frequently affected by symptomatic OA and contributes significantly to the morbidity associated with the disease. The lateral portion of the PFJ experiences greater forces than the medial, and this reflects the disease pattern in this joint, with the lateral compartment being predominantly affected by the OA process.
