Home ownership, full-time employment, and other markers of higher socioeconomic status are predictive of shorter time to initial evaluation, shorter time to surgery, and superior postoperative outcomes among lateral patellar instability patients undergoing medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to identify socioeconomic predictors of time to initial evaluation, time to surgery, and postoperative...
-
Combined quadriceps medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction and osteochondral fixation offers good patient-reported outcomes and low rates of recurrent instability for osteochondral defects secondary to acute patella dislocation
PurposeChondral injuries secondary to traumatic patella dislocation are common, and a subgroup of these are significant defects with fragments...
-
Revision surgery for failed medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction results in better disease-specific outcome scores when performed for recurrent instability than for patellofemoral pain or limited range of motion
PurposeMedial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFL-R) is an important treatment for recurrent patellar instability. Although complications...
-
PROMIS physical function and pain perform poorly psychometrically in patients undergoing medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction
PurposeThe purpose of this study was to assess the validity, floor and ceiling effects, and dimensionality of PROMIS Physical Function (PF) and Pain...
