Trochleoplasty Utilization in the Management of Patellofemoral Instability: Results From an International Survey of Surgeons
Study findings indicated that variation exists in the surgical indicators, technique, and postoperative rehabilitation practices of trochleoplasty surgeons, with specific differences noted between high- and low-volume trochleoplasty surgeons. The results of this survey identified areas of equipoise and treatment variation that should direct future research efforts in the study of the trochleoplasty procedure.
