Familial joint laxity and recurrent dislocation of the patella.
Recurrent dislocation of the patella probably has several causes. In many patients abnormal laxity of the knee is present and this may predispose to dislocation (Dc Palma 1954). A family has come to our notice in which three members suffered recurrent dislocation of the patella and a fourth had probably sustained a single dislocation. All the former had abnormally lax knees and most other joint...
متن کاملMPFL reconstruction for recurrent patella dislocation: a new surgical technique and review of the literature.
Recurrent dislocation, subluxation and functional instability due to patellofemoral pain might be present in 30 % to 60 % of patients managed non-operatively for posttraumatic patella instability. Disruption of the capsule, medial patella retinaculum and/or vastus medialis obliquus have been associated with recurrent patella instability but recently the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) has...
متن کاملRecurrent dislocation of the patella. Histochemical and electromyographic evidence of primary muscle pathology.
The role of muscle function in the aetiology of recurrent dislocation of the patella has been examined. Eleven of the 12 patients we studied had joint hypermobility. Muscle biopsies from eight of nine patients treated by surgery had a predominance of abnormal Type 2C fibres, and three of six patients whose quadriceps muscles were studied by electromyography also had abnormal results. Our prelim...
متن کاملBilateral recurrent discloation of the patella associated with below knee amputation: A case report
BACKGROUND Recurrent dislocation of the patella in patients with below knee amputation is a known entity. Abnormally high-riding patella (patella alta) and medial patellofemoral ligament insufficiency in these patients predisposes them to patellar instability. The established treatment of this problem is surgical realignment. CASE PRESENTATION A 25 year old male patient with bilateral below k...
متن کاملRecurrent dislocation of the patella accompanying hypotrochlea of the femur and malalignment of the patella
This case report describes a rare case of recurrent dislocation of the patella which was accompanied with trochlear dysplasia and malalignment of the patella in a 15-year-old girl. She complained of hemoarthrosis and recurrent patellar dislocation in the early knee flexion phase. Plain radiography and computed tomography (CT) showed patellar malalignment (quadriceps angle 20°) and severe dyspla...
متن کاملLate results of transfer of the tibial tubercle for recurrent dislocation of the patella.
The authors wished to determine the late results of the Hauser operation, with special reference to the development of osteoarthritis. Predisposing factors associated with recurrent dislocation of the patella were also investigated. Thirty-five patients with forty-four surgically treated knees attended for review, ten to twenty-five (average sixteen) years after operation. Two patients had subs...
