The effect of native knee rotation on the tibial-tubercle-trochlear-groove distance in patients with patellar instability: an analysis of MRI and CT measurements

Jakob Ackermann et al.

Summary: This study aimed to quantify the effect of lower limb rotational parameters on the difference in the tibial-tubercle-trochlear-groove (TTTG) distance when assessed with MRI and CT in patients with patellar instability. The results showed that knee rotation angle had a significant correlation with the difference between TTTG measured on MRI and CT, while knee flexion angle had a smaller impact. Therefore, when evaluating patellar instability, both knee flexion and knee rotation should be considered to avoid a false estimation of the TTTG distance on MRI.

Interobserver Reliability and Change in the Sagittal Tibial Tubercle-Trochlear Groove Distance with Increasing Knee Flexion Angles

Ian S. MacLean et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the interobserver reliability and changes in the sTT-TG distance with varying knee flexion angles. Results show excellent interobserver reliability of the sTT-TG distance and how the distance becomes more negative with increasing knee flexion. Awareness of the knee flexion angle is crucial when utilizing this measurement in MRI scans.

Validating the Role of Tibial Tubercle-Posterior Cruciate Ligament Distance and Tibial Tubercle-Trochlear Groove Distance Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients With Patellar Dislocation: A Diagnostic Study

Zijie Xu et al.

Summary: This study compared the parameters between patients with patellar dislocation and healthy individuals on MRI measurements, validating the diagnostic capacity of TT-PCL distance and TT-TG distance. The TT-TG distance had better diagnostic capacity than the TT-PCL distance, and a pathologic threshold value of 13.64 mm was determined for TT-TG distance.

Tibial tuberosity-tibial intercondylar midpoint distance measured on computed tomography scanner is not biased during knee rotation and could be clinically more relevant than current measurement systems

Dinko Nizic et al.

Summary: The study evaluates an alternative imaging test for lateralization of the tibial tuberosity unbiased towards knee rotation, with TT-TIM showing the highest precision. TT-TG and TT-FIM negatively correlated with age, LRAs, and FTD, while TT-TIM was unbiased, demonstrating good accuracy and reproducibility. TT-TIM was sex-biased, with different cut-off values for females and males.

Defining the role of TT-TG and TT-PCL in the diagnosis of lateralization of the Tibial tubercle in recurrent patellar dislocation

Peng Su et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the role of radiological indicators in determining whether to perform tibial tubercle transfer surgery, finding that CT-measured TT-TG may be more suitable for measuring the lateralization of the tibial tubercle, while MRI-measured TT-PCL should be considered as an individual parameter due to its significant correlation with tibial width.

Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy With Distalization Is a Safe and Effective Procedure for Patients With Patella Alta and Patellar Instability

Chilan B. G. Leite et al.

Summary: The tibial tubercle osteotomy with distalization (TTO-d) for patellar instability in patients with patella alta, combined with medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction, showed good radiographic, clinical, and functional outcomes with proper patellar stability. The procedure appeared to be safe and efficient, providing an additional tool for the personalized treatment of patellar instability, with low complication rates.

Weight bearing versus conventional CT for the measurement of patellar alignment and stability in patients after surgical treatment for patellar recurrent dislocation

Giada Lullini et al.

Summary: In patients surgically treated for recurrent patellar dislocation, TT-TG offset was found to be significantly underestimated with weight-bearing CBCT compared to conventional CT scans. All measurements of patellofemoral stability and alignment were more consistent with CBCT compared to conventional CT, with inter-rater reliability ranging between 0.80-0.94 for CBCT scans and 0.52-0.78 for conventional CT scans.

Comparing the Tibial Tuberosity-Trochlear Groove Distance Between CT and MRI in Skeletally Immature Patients With and Without Patellar Instability

Zhen-Zhen Dai et al.

Summary: The study investigated the differences in TT-TG measurements between skeletally immature patients using CT and MRI, finding discrepancies in measurements between the two imaging modalities. The cartilaginous TT-TG distance was greater than the bony distance, and patients with patellar instability had higher TT-TG distances compared to the control group, regardless of landmarks or imaging modality used.
