English term or phrase: patellar snapping
Se trata de un artículo sobre artroplastia de rodilla. "Patellar snapping" sería una de las posibles complicaciones de la intervención. No se si se puede referir a un chasquido de la rótula o si tiene otro significado.
El contexto es este:
No instances of patellar or trochlear loosening were identified. "Patellar snapping" was observed in 2% of patients.

ruptura/fractura rotuliana/de la rótula


Explanation:
las rupturas son menso comunes que el aflojamiento del componente rotuliano, asi que se me ocurre que el "snapping" se refiere a la separacion o ruptura de la rotula...a menos que esten hablando del
síndrome del "clunk" rotuliano o de un deslizamiento rotuliano

To "snap" a stick fro example means to break it

Example sentence(s):
  • Los signos clínicos del fallo del componente rotuliano incluyen el derrame y la crepitación, que ocasionalmente es audible.
