“…In addition to accelerated patellofemoral cartilage deterioration, 26 other factors that may play a role in the development of PFP include altered patellofemoral loading patterns secondary to altered knee motion, 8 quadriceps weakness, 1,9 and surgical portal irritation, particularly when the infrapatellar fat pad is compromised. 9 Notably, these factors may be mediated by an elevated BMI, which was found to be associated with PFP in the current study. BMI was not recorded prior to ACLR, and therefore could not be included as a predictive factor.…”

“…23 While the AKPS has been used extensively in atraumatic PFP and can predict outcome in this population, 24 it has seldom been used following ACLR. 9 Instead, measures such as pain during patellar compression, 1 pain severity during the previous week, 25 and pain related to activity, stair ambulation or flexed-knee sitting 8 have been used previously to define post-ACLR PFP. Interestingly, the AKPS incorporates many of these variables into one overall score, 16 with the cut-off we determined resulting in similar rates of PFP (approximately 30%) previously reported one year following hamstring-tendon harvest.…”

“…Increased blood flow in the infrapatellar fat pad is an important factor for anterior knee pain after ACL reconstruction with hamstring tendon a utografts, and ultrasound evaluation can be useful for determining the etiology of the anterior knee pain [23]. However, we did not perform ultrasound evaluation of our patients with anterior knee pain after ACL reconstruction.…”

“…Bezüglich der oben genannten Schwellungen und möglicher Gelenkergüsse, ist die Ultraschalldiagnostik ein einfaches und effektives Evaluationsinstrument. So können sehr einfach Kontrollen durchgeführt und mögliche Komplikationen frühzeitig erkannt werden [21]. Eine weiterführende bildgebende Diagnostik wie z.…”
