The lateral hyperpressure syndrome of the patella according to Ficat is characterized as a main cause of chondropathia patellae. Symptoms and course as well as roentgenology of this syndrome are illustrated. The logical method of treatment of this syndrome is the lateral release-operation according to Viernstein and Weigert.
