ABSTRACT

Chondromalacia patellae (CP) is a condition that affects the articular cartilage of the patella. It encompasses a spectrum of clinical severity, ranging from mild fissuring of the articular cartilage to complete cartilage loss and erosion of the underlying subchondral bone. CP is part of medical conditions contained within the patellofemoral pain syndrome.
