Based on the reference provided:
Values refer to injured knees. Some patients had more than 1 injured knee. PAT, patella; F-PAT, facies patellaris; LFC, lateral femoral condyle; LTP, lateral tibial plateau; MFC, medial femoral condyle; MTP, medial tibial plateau.
This indicates that LFC, along with other abbreviations such as PAT (patella), LTP (lateral tibial plateau), MFC (medial femoral condyle), and MTP (medial tibial plateau), are used to denote specific areas of the knee that may be injured. Therefore, if an injury report mentions "LFC," it's referring to an injury of the lateral femoral condyle.
