[QUOTE="nephron, post: 139531, member: 23759"] Great, another one that thinks they know more medicine than a Doc.:silly: All "symptomatic" cases of chondromalacia patella result in the loose term "patellofemoral syndrome". Of course, all PF is not chondromalacia, but that's not what I said. "One in the same" means, just as above, all symptomatic cases of Chondromalacia Patella ARE, by virtue of their presenting symptoms, Patellofemoral syndrome. And yes, I wasn't stuttering: genu valgum IS the knee posturing abnormality that predisposes/exacerbates CP/PFS because of the resulting mal-alignment of the subpatellar surface over the lateral femoral condyle. This so-called "knock-kneed" position is particularly common in women, having to do with the effects of Estrogen-induced "softening" of the knee ligaments and tendons (medial/lateral collateral ligaments, iliotibial tract, sartorius and gracilis tendons, and semitendinosis insertion). Having had said that, I am not a primary care physician and don't do much ortho. But beyond Internal Medicine and its specialties, everything else pales in comparison (in terms of "difficulty"). Keep it coming, I've got an endless supply of whence that came....:) [/QUOTE]
