Acute patellar dislocations
Abstract
Of 27 patients sustaining primary patellar dislocations, 20 were treated with immobilization and subsequent physiotherapy (including nine patients who underwent arthrosocoy) and seven with immediate surgical stabi lization and lateral release. The patients with predis posing factors such as patellofemoral malalignment, abnormal patellar configuration, and a history of prior symptoms of instability were more prone to recurrent dislocation and may benefit from operative intervention. Although the incidence of recurrence among those individuals can be decreased, at least 30% to 50% of all patients having sustained a primary patellar dislo cation will continue to have symptoms of instability and/ or anterior knee pain.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
