Summary

Soft tissue realignment of the tibial insertion of the patella tendon is a simple operative technique for treating dislocation of the patella in childhood and adolescence. It is performed in children with either recurrent dislocation or complicated primary dislocation in cases with malalignment or maltracking of the patella and a lateralised tibial tuberosity. It can be performed in patients with open epiphyses. We investigate long-term outcome after this procedure.
