Abnormal softening of the cartilage in the knee joint is known as chondromalacia patellae. This condition typically involves the degeneration of the cartilage on the underside of the patella (kneecap), leading to pain, swelling, and difficulty in movement. It can result from overuse, injury, or misalignment of the knee joint, and is often seen in athletes or individuals with certain biomechanical issues. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and in some cases, surgical intervention.
Chondromalacia is abnormal softening of cartilage of the joints. Bicompartmental means relating to two compartments and is normally used referring to something in both the inside and the outside of the knee (the medial and lateral compartments). So I would assume that bicompartmental chondromalacia is abnormal softening of the cartilage of both the inside and outside of the knee. Hope this has helped.
Chondromalacia is the term for the softening of cartilage, often found in the knee joint. It can cause pain and discomfort, particularly during activities that put stress on the knee. Treatment usually involves rest, physical therapy, and pain management.
The true hyaline cartilage is the knee's intra-articular cartilage found in the joint surface. It has collagen but does not possess nerves or blood vessels.
Articular cartilage.

malacia means softening, or loss of consistency, of an organ or tissue.
Cartilage between the thighbone and shinbone is called the meniscus. This can tear when the knee is rotated or extended too far.
