Medial patellar synovial plica syndrome: the influence of associated pathology on long-term results.

The results obtained after 4-8 years in 42 patients submitted to arthroscopy for the treatment of medial patellar synovial plica syndrome are analyzed. There was a considerable difference in the values obtained depending on whether the plica was isolated, or associated with meniscal or cartilaginous lesion. In fact, based on the Lysholm score, treatment of isolated plica obtained 17 excellent or good results in 21 patients, while in the 21 cases where the lesion was associated with other pathologies excellent or good results were observed in only 9 subjects. Thus, associated lesions definitely influence long-term results.
