Preliminary results of two surgical techniques in the treatment of recurrent patellar dislocation

摘要

Recurrent patellar dislocation is defined as a dislocation occurring more than once. There is no consensus as to the choice of operative technique for recurrent dislocation in adolescents. Recently, great importance has been attributed to MPFL reconstruction. The aim of this study is to evaluate the value of MPFL reconstruction (group A) in adolescents by comparing MPFL reconstruction with combined soft tissue proximal and distal alignment (group B).
