In a review of 50 primary total condylar knee arthroplasties in 25 female and in 14 male patients the factors affecting the necessity of lateral patellar release and bone grafting of the medial tibial plateau were established. Lateral patellar release was performed in 18 of 33 arthroplasties in fema
To what extent lateral retinacular release done in total knee arthroplasty compromises patellar viability has been debated. This study is a prospective study to assess patellar viability using Technetium-99m methylene diphosphate (Tc-99m MDP) scintigraphy. Between 2005 and 2006, 59 patients (72 knee
