Hindlimb torsional alignment changes in growing rabbits after patellar dislocation
Background Torsional malalignment has been considered as a risk factor for patellar dislocation. But the influence of patellar dislocation for torsional alignment development remains unknown.

Surgical versus non-surgical interventions for treating patellar dislocation [PDF]
Background: Patellar dislocation occurs when the patella disengages completely from the trochlear (femoral) groove. Following reduction of the dislocation, conservative (non-surgical) rehabilitation with physiotherapy may be used.

Recurrent lateral patellar dislocation can be a challenging entity to manage. It results from an imbalance between the restraints to lateralization of the patella and the forces applied to the patella within the biomechanical environment of the knee. The

Posterior stabilized designs in modern total knee arthroplasty: Vestigial organs [PDF]
Clinical difference between posterior-stabilized (PS) and cruciate-retaining (CR) designs in total knee arthroplasty has remained elusive for decades. This classic debate has been given pause due to futile efforts to prove one design superior over the ...

Rehabilitation following first-time patellar dislocation: a randomised controlled trial of purported vastus medialis obliquus muscle versus general quadriceps strengthening exercises. [PDF]
Purpose: Define whether distal vastus medialis (VM) muscle strengthening improves functional outcomes compared to general quadriceps muscles strengthening following first-time patellar dislocation (FTPD). Methods: Fifty patients post-FTPD were randomised
