Abstract
Intra-articular patella dislocations are uncommon, but the majority of cases can be reduced by closed methods. We present a rare case that required open reduction and highlight the reasons and present a review of the same.
We describe a rare case of horizontal intra-articular patella dislocation associated with an intact periosteal sleeve and extensor retinaculum in a 13-year-old boy requiring open reduction.
Horizontal intra-articular patellar dislocation is an uncommon injury, especially in the adolescent age group. Open reduction should only be performed if closed reduction is unsuccessful.
Keywords: Horizontal intra-articular dislocation of patella, Intact periosteal sleeve, Open reduction.
