What Does Patella Alta And Tricompartmental Partial-thickness Cartilage Thinning Mean?

What does both mean? 1. Patella alta. Transient lateral patellar dislocation cannot be excluded due to mild bone contusion involving the lateral femoral condyle without an associated bone contusion of the patella medially. 2. Tricompartmental partial-thickness cartilage thinning ?
