Facet – A smooth flat or nearly flat circumscribed anatomical surface.
Femoral – Of or relating to the femur or thigh.
Femoral vein – The chief vein of the thigh that is a continuation of the popliteal vein, accompanies the femoral artery in the upper part of its course, and continues above the inguinal ligament as the external iliac vein.
Granulocyte – A polymorphonuclear white blood cell (as a basophil, eosinophil, or neutrophil) with granule-containing cytoplasm.
Hematopoisis – The formation of blood or of blood cells in the living body.
Hemarthrosis – Hemorrhage into a joint.
Herniated – To protrude through an abnormal body opening.

Immunohistochemistry – Of or relating to the application of histochemical and immunologic methods to chemical analysis of living cells and tissue.

Intercondylar – Situated between two condyles.
Lumen – The cavity of a tubular organ or part.

Medial – Lying or extending in the middle; especially of a body part : lying or extending toward the median axis of the body.
Microangiopathy – A disease of very fine blood vessels.
Neuropathy – An abnormal and usually degenerative state of the nervous system or nerves; also : a systemic condition (as muscular atrophy) that stems from a neuropathy.
Neurovascular – Of, relating to, or involving both nerves and blood vessels.
Nonunion – Failure of the fragments of a broken bone to knit together.
Osteoarthritis – Arthritis typically with onset during middle or old age that is characterized by degenerative and sometimes hypertrophic changes in the bone and cartilage of one or more joints and a progressive wearing down of apposing joint surfaces with consequent distortion of joint position and is marked symptomatically especially by pain, swelling, and stiffness.
Osteochondritis dissecans – Partial or complete detachment of a fragment of bone and cartilage at a joint.
Osteogenesis – Development and formation of bone.
Osteophyte – A pathological bony outgrowth.
Osteotomy – A surgical operation in which a bone is divided or a piece of bone is excised (as to correct a deformity).
Patellar – A thick flat triangular movable bone that forms the anterior point of the knee, protects the front of the joint, increases the leverage of the quadriceps, and is usually regarded as a sesamoid bone since it is developed in the tendon of the quadriceps and in structure is similar to other sesamoid bones—called also kneecap, kneepan.
Patellofemoral – Of or relating to the patella and femur.
Pepsin – A protease of the stomach that breaks down most proteins to polypeptides.
Percutaneously – Effected or performed through the skin.
Progenitor – An ancestor of an individual in a direct line of descent along which some or all of the ancestral genes could theoretically have passed.
Proteoglycans – Any of a class of glycoproteins of high molecular weight that are found in the extracellular matrix of connective tissue, are made up mostly of carbohydrate consisting of various polysaccharide side chains linked to a protein, and resemble polysaccharides rather than proteins in their properties.
Revascularisation– A surgical procedure for the provision of a new, additional, or augmented blood supply to a body part or organ.
Rheumatoid arthritis – A usually chronic disease that is considered an autoimmune disease and is characterized especially by pain, stiffness, inflammation, swelling, and sometimes destruction of joints —abbreviation RA.
Rotator cuff – A supporting and strengthening structure of the shoulder joint that is made up of part of its capsule blended with tendons of the subscapularis, infraspinatus, supraspinatus, and teres minor muscles as they pass to the capsule or across it to insert on the humerus—called also musculotendinous cuff.
