What's the difference between patellae and patellar?
Patellae
Definition:
(pl. ) of Patella

(13) A set of 4 projections of radiological examination performed on patients with intraarticular injuries of the knee has been presented, namely: 1) the a-p view of the knee in the standing position, 2) the 1-1 view with 30 degrees of flexion in the lying position, 3) the axial view of patellae, 30 degrees of flexion of the knee, standing position, 4) the tunnel view of the knee joint.

(20) This procedure should be reserved for advanced chondromalacia patellae (Grades III and IV) and recurrent patellar dislocation.
Patellar
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to the patella, or kneepan.
Example Sentences:
(1) Pain is not reported in the removal area, the clinical examinations show identical findings on both patellar tendons, X-ray and ultrasound evaluations do not demonstrate any change in patellar position.
(2) In these three patients, laxity of the knee in flexion was so severe that posterior instability could not be corrected merely by patellar relocation.
(3) Patellar subluxation may improve substantially following either lateral release or anteromedial tibial tubercle transfer, but this study suggests that correction of subluxation is less consistent than reduction of abnormal tilt with tibial tubercle transfer or lateral release alone.
(4) A knee simulator was used to study the wear of carbon fiber reinforced UHMWPE (Poly Two) (Poly Two is a registered trademark of Zimmer, USA) tibial and patellar components against Ti-6A1-4V, titanium nitride (TiN)-coated Ti-6A1-4V, and cobalt-chromium-molybdenum femoral components.
(5) Whereas all extant vertical clingers and leapers share certain femoral traits (i.e., long femur, proximally restricted trochanters, ventrally raised patellar articular surface), Galagidae and Tarsiidae share features of the proximal femur (i.e., cylindrical head, large posterior expansion of articular surface onto the neck) that clearly distinguish them from the specialized leapers of the Malagasy Republic (Indriidae and Lepilemur).
(6) The operation revealed a necrotic focus of the patellar tendon in 21 cases, the retinaculum was thick and adherent in 16 patients and an exostosis of the patellar insertion was seen in two cases.
(7) Only the bone-patellar tendon-bone unit had maximum force and stiffness greater than that of the ACL.
(8) When the knee was in extension compared to 30 degrees flexion, the sulcus angle was greater, the lateral patellofemoral angle was smaller, there was more lateral patellar displacement, the patella tilted more laterally, and the congruence angle was directed more laterally.
(9) A study was undertaken to evaluate the strength and ease of application of four different forms of patellar fracture fixation.
(10) A corrugated appearance of the patellar tendon on sagittal images indicates a reduction in the normal tensile force applied to it and indicates the need for careful evaluation of the patella and quadriceps tendon mechanism.
(11) We investigated the frequency of patellar tendon rupture in our patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in order to characterize the features that might predict rupture and compared our experience to that described in the literature.
(12) All patients were treated by replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament with the medial third of the patellar tendon as a free graft, supplemented by an extra-articular MacIntosh lateral reconstruction.
(13) To assess the long-term efficacy of patellar resurfacing, 100 knees were evaluated in 84 patients.
(14) It is concluded that treatment with a patellar brace with a lateral pad is not likely to succeed in the majority of patients with retropatellar pain syndrome.
(15) At the insertion of the quadriceps tendon and the 'origin' of the patellar ligament, there was more calcified tissue beneath the superficial than the deep parts of the attachment.
(16) The height of the depleted superficial area was estimated on patellar cartilage stained for sulphated GAG with toluidine blue-0 at pH 3, visually and by optical densitometry using the wavelength corresponding to the gamma-band of toluidine blue.
(17) While the initial group of 122 arthroplasties was only slightly greater than one-third male, the preponderance of patellar fractures was in males (ten of 12).
(18) We reviewed 350 knee arthroplasties performed between 1977 and 1984 for patellar problems.
(19) Loosening of the patellar component is likely to be symptomatic and to require surgery in up to 75% of cases.
(20) The paracetamol-induced serum sulfate depletion, observed during the first four weeks of the experiment, led to a significantly lower glycosaminoglycan content of the patellar cartilage of the rats after three and four weeks paracetamol treatment.
