  • Title: Bone-scintigraphy in painful bipartite patella.
    Author: Iossifidis A, Brueton RN, Nunan TO.
    Journal: Eur J Nucl Med; 1995 Oct; 22(10):1212-3. PubMed ID: 8542907.
    Abstract:
    We report the scintigraphic-appearances of painful bipartite patella in 25-year-old man a 2 1/2 years history of unexplained patellar pain. Painful bipartite patella is a rare cause of chronic post-traumatic patellar pain. Bone scintigraphy, by demonstrating increased uptake by the painful accessory bipartite fragment, appears to be an imaging method of choice in the diagnosis of this condition.
