Abstract

Although patellar dislocation is a knee disorder prevalent in adolescence and young adults, the evaluation and treatment of patients are complex and even enigmatic. Much of the literature fails to provide a detailed description of patient management. The purpose of this study is to introduce a method for the evaluation and treatment of patellar dislocation. This Technical Note will help guide clinicians in the clinical evaluation of patients and formulation of treatment plans.
