5 year prognosis for patellar tendinopathy
journals.sagepub.com/doi/ful…
71% returned to pre injury sport BUT only 68% of these (less than 50% of people overall) returned to pre-injury level of competition.
Not a good stat. We need to do better for patellar tendinopathy.

Long-term results matter. This study shows that mild patellofemoral OA does not compromise functional outcomes or satisfaction after trochleoplasty at 15 years.

1. So nice to see the @PRePPeD_Trial results finally out open-access!
This study moves us one step closer to a definitive, full-scale trial in rehabilitation after patellar dislocation. @BritishPFSoc
Collaborations and feedback are always welcome!
A full-scale RCT comparing two exercise-based rehabilitation interventions for patients with an acute patellar dislocation is feasible with minor modifications.

Patellofemoral cartilage defects may require more than cartilage restoration alone. This VJSM technique combines MACI with tibial tubercle osteotomy and lateral retinacular lengthening to offload the joint, protect the graft, and improve outcomes.

Discover a safe, cost-effective approach to medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction: using the medial third of the patellar tendon eliminates the need for hardware or implants in the patella. Prioritize patient safety and reduce complications. #MPFL #PatellaInstability
