Patellar Dislocation

Patellar Luxation

Late presentation of congenital patellar dislocation with advanced osteoarthritis is rare. This article presents a case of a 59-year-old man with underlying pseudoachondroplastic dwarfism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Soft Tissue Mass

    MRI revealed an intra-articular soft tissue mass at the lateral gutter of the knee joint with considerable mass effect displacing patella from the trochlear groove. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Arachnodactyly

    Two siblings were affected with almost identical features; including blepharophimosis, arachnodactyly, flexion contractures of the elbows, camptodactyly, slender ribs, hooked lateral clavicular ends, and bilateral radial head dislocations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Dysostosis

    This disease causes many skeletal changes including dysostosis multiplex, synovial hypertrophy, and Charcot-type joints. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Nausea

    Procedural sedation is the preferred method used for this purpose in ED, but these medications need to be closely monitored because of their potential complications, such as nausea, vomiting, allergic reactions, and respiratory depression. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Complications include: Allergic reactions to medications Side effects to painkilling medications such as nausea and vomiting Pneumonia Local complications: Infection. Infection can occur with any operation in the knee. [kneesurgeon.com.au]

  • Prognathism

    In addition to the already described macrocephaly and mild ID, they share osteoarticular defects, patella dislocation, behavioral abnormalities, psychosis, learning difficulties, celiac disease, prognathism, myopia, and astigmatism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Flexion Contracture

    We present a case of an 8-year-old boy diagnosed with melorheostosis who was suffering from severe genu valgum, permanent dislocation of the patella, knee flexion contracture and leg length shortening. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    contracture should be 5o Angular deformity should be 15 o (10 o varus to 15 o valgus) and be passively correctable to neutral Both cruciates should be intact Final decision to proceed after inspection of the joint surfaces Patello femoral joint pain [flinders.edu.au]

  • Quadriceps Muscle Weakness

    Quadriceps muscle weakness can be expected to occur post-operatively. 2015 The British Editorial Society of Bone & Joint Surgery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Joint Deformity

    Soft tissue contracture of the limb and subsequent joint deformities were reported to represent clinical manifestations of pediatric melorheostosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Macrocephaly

    In addition to the already described macrocephaly and mild ID, they share osteoarticular defects, patella dislocation, behavioral abnormalities, psychosis, learning difficulties, celiac disease, prognathism, myopia, and astigmatism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Learning Difficulties

    In addition to the already described macrocephaly and mild ID, they share osteoarticular defects, patella dislocation, behavioral abnormalities, psychosis, learning difficulties, celiac disease, prognathism, myopia, and astigmatism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A workup typically includes X-rays and may require additional testing such as an MRI or CT scan to fully define the injury, and determine why the patient had the injury, if risk factors are present. [trihealth.com]

Two common treatment options include nonoperative treatment or operative repair of injured structures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis Most people recover full function following a course of conservative care of physical therapy to strengthen and stabilize the knee. [twinboro.com]

What is the Prognosis of Kneecap Dislocation? The prognosis of Kneecap Dislocation is usually good, if appropriate medical treatment is provided. [dovemed.com]

What Is the Prognosis of a Knee Dislocation? In general, this is a very serious injury. Recover is possible, but often the injured knee does not regain its previous capacity to adsorb stresses. [emedicinehealth.com]

A MRI is necessary to assess for osteochondral lesions, as they are associated with a poor prognosis if not addressed. [physio-pedia.com]

Etiology, diagnosis and treatment are discussed. Arthroscopy is recommended to visualize chondral defects. Results are presented in combination with follow-up. Four patients still complain of instability of the knee after surgery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology Clinical features Diagnostics Lipohemarthrosis in the presence of normal knee x-rays indicates an osteochondral lesion! Treatment Complications We list the most important complications. The selection is not exhaustive. [amboss.com]

It is situated deep to the vastus lateralis muscle, ranging from the posterior aspect of the medial femoral condyle to the superiomedial part of the patella, vastus medialis and quadriceps tendon. [1] Epidemiology/Etiology Epidemiology The incidence for [physio-pedia.com]

Nomura et al., [ 23 ] concluded that incompetence of the MPL is a major factor in the etiology of recurrent patellar dislocation. [openorthopaedicsjournal.com]

Another cause of patellar symptoms is lateral patellar compression syndrome, which can be caused from lack of balance or inflammation in the joints. [8] The pathophysiology of the kneecap is complex, and deals with the osseous soft tissue or abnormalities [en.wikipedia.org]

RESULTS: Tibial tubercle distalization was generally successful in normalizing patellar height and preventing recurrent patellar dislocation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
