Resumen:
La artritis patelofemoral aislada es una condición común y hay diferentes opiniones sobre los tratamientos más eficaces. No quirúrgico y tratamientos operatorios no han podido demostrar un tratamiento eficaz a largo plazo para aquellos en una etapa avanzada de la enfermedad. Los diseños más nuevos y el aumento de la tecnología en el reemplazo patelofemoral (PFR) han producido resultados más consistentes. Esto ha llevado a un renovado entusiasmo por este procedimiento. Reciente prótesis PFR han abordado las cuestiones mal encarrilamiento rotuliano asolan algunos de los diseños más antiguos. Los resultados a corto plazo con las prótesis actuales y las nuevas tecnologías se describen aquí.
Abstract
Isolated patellofemoral arthritis is a common condition and there are varying opinions on the most effective treatments. Non-operative and operative treatments have failed to demonstrate effective long-term treatment for those in an advanced stage of the condition. Newer designs and increased technology in patellofemoral replacement (PFR) have produced more consistent outcomes. This has led to a renewed enthusiasm for this procedure. Newer PFR prostheses have addressed the patellar maltracking issues plaguing some of the older designs. Short-term results with contemporary prostheses and new technology are described here.
