Patellofemoral is an anatomical adjective describing the joint relationship between the patella (kneecap) and the femur (thigh bone). It is used especially in medical contexts to discuss patellofemoral pain, tracking, or articulation. The term is used in radiology, orthopedics, and physical therapy to indicate joint dynamics rather than a separate bone.
