- pain on patellar compression; - instability; - passive patellar tilt test and the patellar glide test assess tightness/laxity of lateral and medal retinacula, respectively; - patellar tracking is assessed during knee flexion & extension, & presences/ absence of J sign;

For the detection of patellar malalignment, the tilt angle was almost as specific as the congruence angle (92% v 99%) but more sensitive (85% v 25%) and more accurate (89% v 62%).

This includes ELPS (excessive lateral pressure syndrome) or LPCS (lateral patellar compression syndrome), patella tilt, subluxation and dislocation. The kneecap most commonly tends to tilt and glide towards the outside of the knee (subluxation).

We propose the threshold of 20 degrees to determine a pathological patellar tilt. In this case, sensibility is 90 per cent and the specificity is 91 per cent. In the other patellar instability factors, only severe trochlear dysplasias involved the patellar tilt.
