Subchondral Insufficiency Fracture Clinical Trial
Official title:
Insufficiency Fractures of the Knee: Insufficient of Nutrients or Cartilage?
This prospective cohort study is designed to investigate possible association(s) between subchondral insufficiency fractures (SIFKs) of the knee and pre-existing health, lifestyle, and/or musculoskeletal conditions. In doing so, this research may shed light on the underlying cause(s) of SIFKs. It is hypothesized that SIFKs of the knee are related to osteoarthritis, weak bone, and/or metabolic issues, rather than trauma.
