RESUMO
Background: The purpose of this research is comparison between the morphologic types of the patella in patients with chondromalacia with normal persons
Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, we ordered the radiologic views of the patella [lateral view in 30 degree flexion and patellar view] from patients with chondromalacia and normal persons
Results: in morphology ratio classification, 60% of normal persons were in morphology type 1, 40% in morphology type II and there was no one in type III. In wiberg classification, 57% of normal persons were in morphology type I, 43% in type II and no one in type III. In morphology ratio classification, 74% of patient with chondromalacia were in type I, 13% in type II and 13% in type III. In wiberg classification, 17% in type I, 83% in type II and no one in type III
Conclusion: In morphology ratio classification, morphology type II is associated with high prevalence in normal person with respect to patients with chondromlacia. In wiberg classification, morphology type I is associated with high prevalence in normal persons with respect to patient with chondromalacia

Background: The purpose of this research is comparison between the morphologic types of the patella in patients with chondromalecia with normal persons
Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, we ordered the radiologic views of the patella [lateral view in 30 degree flexion and patellar view] from patients with chondromalacia and normal persons
Results: in morphology ratio classification, 60% of normal persons were in morphology type I, 40% in morphology type II and there was no one in type Ill. In wiberg classification, 57% of normal persons were in morphology type I, 43% in type II and no one in type Ill. In morphology ratio classification, 74% of patient with chondromalacia were in type I, 13% in type II and 13% in type Ill.

Conclusion: In morphology ratio classification, morphology type II is associated with high prevalence in normal person with respect to patients with chondromlacia.
