Observational study identifies significant anatomical factors influencing recurrent patellar dislocation, suggesting MRI can aid in treatment planning.
Key Points
Lower TT–TG distance and shorter patellar tendon lengths are associated with recurrent patellar dislocation.
Significant differences were noted in TT–TG distance and patellar tendon length (p < 0.05) among patients.
MRI was utilized to measure various anatomical parameters including TT–TG distance and sulcus angle.
Identifying anatomical risk factors via imaging may support individualized treatment plans following injury.
