Knee Flexion Contractures in Patients with Osteoarthritis: Clinical Features and Histologic Characterization of the Posterior Capsule  Thomas Mark Campbell, MD, MSc, Guy Trudel, MD, MSc, Odette Laneuville, PhD  PM&R  Volume 7, Issue 5, Pages (May 2015) DOI: /j.pmrj Copyright © 2015 American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Tissue composition pie graphs and photomicrographs of stained sections of posterior knee capsule from patients with osteoarthritis with or without knee flexion contracture. (A) Pie graphs showing mean relative tissue composition of capsule tissue samples. Left, contracture; right, noncontracture. (B) Top left, 20× magnification trichrome: contracture sample showing mainly collagenous tissue composition. Bottom left, 20× magnification, inset 100× magnification hematoxylin and eosin: contracture sample showing collagenous, adipose, synovial, and other tissue; inset: synovial border 3–4 cells thick. Top right, 20× magnification trichrome: noncontracture sample showing heterogeneous tissue composition. Bottom right, 20× magnification, inset 100× magnification hematoxylin and eosin: noncontracture sample showing marked synovial proliferation; inset: synovial border 4-6 cells thick. (C) Left, 400× magnification: contracture sample showing fibroblast cellularity within collagenous tissue. Right, 400× magnification: noncontracture sample showing similar fibroblast cellularity as contracture sample. (D) Left, 200× magnification: contracture sample showing adipocyte cellularity. Right, 200× magnification: noncontracture sample showing similar adipocyte cellularity as contracture sample.
