Abstract
- The article discusses the study on analyzing rotational limb alignment in patients with patellofemoral instability using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and comparing them with the reports of individuals with a previous patellar dislocation. It concludes that few patients with nontraumatic patellar instability have greater internal femoral and greater knee rotation, and a tendency for genu valgum as compared to healthy individuals.
