THE SUBSTANTIATION OF EARLY SURGICAL TREATMENT OF CONGENITAL PATELLA DISLOCATION
Abstract
The present work is based on the results of congenital patella dislocation treatment in patients aged from 4 months to 18 years old (average 10,6±0,7 years). The results were estimated in the period ranged from 1 to 40 years (average 15,1±2,1 years). The new classification of congenital patella dislocations was based on the gait biomechanical parameters. The necessity of early surgical treatment of congenital patella dislocation has been proved.
