Prediction of Surgical Procedures Effect on Mal-tracking Correction of Patello-femoral Joint Using Patient-specific Musculo-skeletal Modeling, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Farahmand, Farzam (Supervisor) ; Zohoor, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
According to the statistical studies, knee pain is the most common and costliest disorder after low back pain. One of its types is the patello-femoral disorder and instability. Patellar instability can be affected by different factors, such as: low depth of the trochlear groove, low height of the lateral femoral condyle, high length of the patellar tendon, abnormal lateral rotation of the tibia, unusual tibial attachment of the patellar tendon, small patellar size, general loosening of ligaments, etc. So, the mechanical properties of knee joint including patello-femoral joint, surrounding soft tissues, and incoming forces must be examined carefully, in order to find out suitable and...
