BACKGROUND/AIM: Evaluating the relationship of patellar chondromalacia with obesity, infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) volume and popliteal artery intima-media thickness (IMT).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of203 patients with different degree of patellar chondromalacia (103 male, 100 female) and 52 control subjects (19 male, 33 female) were included and grouped according to sex, age, body surface area (BSA), body mass index (BMI) and patellar chondromalacia classification. All measurements were completed with 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Articular cartilage and IFP volume were measured in saggital plane using double echo steady state (DESS) and DIXON sequences, respectively. Patellar cartilage damage was graded using modified outerbridge classification, and the relations among cartilage volume and BMI, BSA, IFP, IMT were statistically assessed.
RESULTS: Popliteal artery IMT showed an independent association with the prevalence of cartilage defects and IFP volumes (P ˂ 0.001). There was an association between BMI and IFP volumes (P ˂ 0.001). However, no differences were observed between IFP volume and different chondromalacia groups. When IFP measurements were corrected using individual BMI and BSA values, a positive correlation was found between control and advanced chondromalacia groups (P ˂ 0.001).
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates the relationship among obesity, IMT and chondromalacia and highlights this potential circle to develop effective treatments and inhibit the progression of chondromalacia.
