pressure and reducing blood flow to the femoral head.5 Similar to corticosteroids

pressure is a function of both structural and dynamic anatomy. Numerous studies have been performed that confirm the anatomic and mechanical relationship with PF pathologies. Jungmann et al. associated trochlear dysplasia with PF cartilage degeneration by comparing trochlear depth and patellar cartilage volume

blood pressure, and hyperglycemia, it is recommended to space these injections at least

blood loss in the PAO group, as well as increased acetabular implant size and a more superolaterally positioned cup.59 Technical considerations in patients undergoing THA after PAO include the potential for native acetabular retroversion and abnormal proximal femoral anatomy either due to previous osteotomy or underlying dysplasia.60

blood supply to the skin between the two incisions, because vasculature will not cross the new scar and can only travel down the peninsula of skin. Acute angles between incisions should be avoided as well. If an incision is made over an old scar

pressures were greater in females at 0 and 30 degrees of knee flexion.100 The need to better understand the efficacy of patellar resurfacing in females is further amplified by the fact that females may be at an increased risk for periprosthetic patellar fracture after
