Abstract:
A method of arthroscopic reduction and anterograde fixation of osteochondral fracture of the patella ridge is described. This type of fracture was previously treated through arthrotomy. An arthroscopic approach is possible using manipulation of the patella in a loosened medial retinaculum. This method was used in a 14-year-old patient with an osteochondral fracture following the dislocation of the patella.
