Initial investigation into patellofemoral morphology in hemophilic arthritis patients

Compared with OA and normal individuals, Subjects with Haemophilia presented with smaller and thinner patellae, more significant patellar ligament contracture, reduced patellar height, and more pronounced patellar dislocation. Consequently, during total knee arthroplasty, we lean toward patellar reshaping in subjects with Haemophilia, exercise caution when considering patellar replacement, and, for those with severe preoperative patellar dislocation, perform intraoperative lateral retinacular release.
