Maybe it´s the strange name, but it's extraordinary how little attention the common condition in the knee named trochlear dysplasia (which means a flat groove in the kneecap) has received. Contrary to popular belief, at least in its mild forms, trochlear dysplasia is a common knee condition and doctors, orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, and chiropractors who see, guide, and treat patients with anterior knee pain, unstable kneecaps, and osteoarthritis of the knee, should know about trochlear dysplasia. What causes the condition, what are the symptoms and how can we assess it? This book – which is the first of its kind – is a reference work, serving as a compendium for trochlear dysplasia, based on available scientific literature concerning trochlear dysplasia and adjacent areas, such as operations like trochleoplasty. Radiologists in particular who must assess the degree of trochlear dysplasia should immerse themselves in the relevant imaging options.
Associate Professor Lars Blond is a sports medicine surgeon who specializes in main patellofemoral surgery, and was educated and trained as orthopedic surgeon at various university hospitals in Copenhagen, Denmark. He is Past President of the Danish Society of Sports Medicine, and has been Scientific Secretary for the Danish Society of Arthroscopy and a member of the ESSKA (European Society for Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery and Arthroscopy) Patellofemoral Instability Group since 2019. Blond developed arthroscopic deepening trochleoplasty to treat trochlear dysplasia, and has published 38 peer-reviewed papers, several surgical videos and 6 book chapters.
