Excerpt

Acute patellar dislocations account for 2% to 3% of all knee injuries and have an estimated incidence of 5.8 per 100,000 patients per year [3, 5, 9]. Patellar dislocations commonly result in injuries to the soft-tissue structures on the medial aspect of the knee, particularly the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL), which can predispose patients to recurrent instability [3]. Patellar dislocations primarily affect young, physically active individuals, and recurrent instability can cause substantial morbidity [7]. Repetitive injury can lead to pain, inability to return to sports, decreased quality-of-life, early degenerative changes, and osteoarthritis [2]. …
