Definition/Description
A syndrome is a term given to a group of symptoms that collectively indicate or characterise a disease, psychological disorder, or other abnormal condition. In the case of a fabella syndrome, it indicates an abnormal condition caused by a little bone posterolateral in the knee joint. Posterolateral knee pain can be associated with the presence of a...
Clinically Relevant Anatomy
The fabella is a sesamoid bone in the posterolateral capsule of the human knee joint. The fabella is located in the posterior aspect of the knee where lines of tensile stress intersect. It articulates with the posterior part of the articular surface of the lateral femoral condyle and is embedded in the muscular fibres of the gastrocnemius muscle. A...
Epidemiology /Aetiology
The presence of the fabella in humans varies widely and is reported in the literature to range from 20% to 87%. The fabella can be found in 10 to 30 per cent of the population and if it is present there is a 50 per cent chance that it is bilaterally. A familial tendency for an anatomical variant (accessory bone) can be noted in certain cases. Recen...
Characteristics/Clinical Presentation
In most cases, the fabella does not hurt. If it does hurt, it is called fabella syndrome. It is recognized by a sharp pain, local tenderness, and intensification of pain in the area of the fabella by full extension of the knee. It can also cause pain during knee flexion, ascending stairs, cross-legged sitting and athletic activities. Pain is associ...
Differential Diagnosis
Diagnosis of postero-lateral knee pain and dysfunction can be difficult but is important for a good intervention. Baker’s cyst, lateral ligamentous instability, meniscal tears, and proximal tibiofibular joint hypomobility should also be considered. There are other multiple anatomical structures that could be the source including postero-lateral cor...
Outcome Measures
Visual Analogue Scale Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)questionnaire evaluates the functional status and quality of life (QoL) of patients with any type of knee injury who are at increased risk of developing OA; i.e., patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, meniscus injury, or chondral injury.
Examination
Physical examinationmay reveal the presence of swelling/tenderness in the posterolateral aspect of the knee. Palpation of the fabella may suggest the presence of a firm nodule in the left posterolateral popliteal fossa, medial to the tendon of the biceps femoris, and approximately 1 cm in diameter. The range of motion shows that the exercises of th...
What is Fabella syndrome?
Keywords: Fabella syndrome, Posterolateral knee pain, Fabellectomy, Sesamoid bone, Return to sports, Review of literature Background The fabella is a sesamoid bone in the posterolateral capsule of the human knee joint. The presence of the fabella in humans varies widely and is reported in the literature to range from 20% to 87% [1-7].
Can a Fabella cause posterolateral knee pain?
Posterolateral knee pain can be associated with the presence of a fabella and this incidence may be referred to as a fabella syndrome. The syndrome should be considered when tenderness is found over the posterior aspect of the lateral femoral condyle. The fabella is a sesamoid bone in the posterolateral capsule of the human knee joint.
Does the fabella hurt?
In most cases, the fabella does not hurt. If it does hurt, it is called fabella syndrome. It is recognized by a sharp pain, local tenderness, and intensification of pain in the area of the fabella by full extension of the knee. It can also cause pain during knee flexion, ascending stairs, cross-legged sitting and athletic activities.
Can Fabella syndrome cause pain after TKA?
Fabella syndrome has been identified as an uncommon, but relevant, a cause of pain post-TKA due to mechanical irritation of the posterolateral tissues of the knee. The symptoms of fabella syndrome are posterolateral pain and a catching sensation (or clicking sound) with knee flexion.
