Arthritis in the knee's patellofemoral joint (PFJ) is common following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and may be linked with altered loading, or stress, at the joint. In a study published in the Journal of Orthopaedic Research, young adults post ACLR who exhibited lower PFJ loading during hopping were more likely to have PFJ osteoarthritis at 1 year and worsening PFJ osteoarthritis between 1 and 5 years.
