New technique for knee flexion contracture with patella infera using patellar tendon reconstruction combined with anterior capsular shift
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 04/03/09
Takai S et al. - A 24-year-old male presented with an open fracture of the left patella and fracture of the left femoral lateral condyle, and subsequent patella alta suggesting rupture of the left patellar tendon. This initial injury was treated 6 months earlier in another hospital. He was referred because of limited knee motion and radiographs showed severe patella infera. By means of a combination of a contralateral BTB graft and soft tissue repair named anterior capsular shift, the knee contracture with patella infera was resolved successfully.
