Disease relevance of Patellar Dislocation

The collagenase-induced osteoarthrosis was characterized by sclerosis of the subchondral bone, patellar dislocation, osteophyte formation, synovial proliferation and by severe cartilage abrasion, particularly on the medial side of the femoro-tibial joint [1].

High impact information on Patellar Dislocation

Patellar dislocation in Kabuki syndrome [2].
This study investigated the results of augmented repair for avulsion-tear type medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) injury performed on a total of five knees with initial acute lateral patellar dislocation [3].

Anatomical context of Patellar Dislocation

We conclude that our MPFL reconstruction method with the advancement of the vastus medialis or with Insall's procedure might be recommended for the treatment of habitual, recurrent, and indeed any other type of patellar dislocation, as well as for unstable patellae [4].

Gene context of Patellar Dislocation

CONCLUSION: MRI accurately depicts both the extent and the location of MPFL injury following transient patellar dislocation and can therefore play a significant role in directing surgical management of these patients [5].
