This book was initiated by the editors and originates from discussions at the European Society of Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery and Arthroscopy (ESSKA) meeting. Dr. Dejour is associated with the Lyon medical school in France that is renowned for work on the patellofemoral joint especially trochlear dysplasia and osteotomies. Dr. Arendt from Minneapolis, USA is also a familiar name in the specialty, particularly on the subject of the medial patellofemoral ligament. More than 35 authors (a good mix of orthopaedic surgeons, physiotherapists and researchers from Europe and the USA) contributed to this book -- some authors as well as all of the editors are members of the International Patellofemoral Study Group.
