Recurrence after patellar dislocation. Redislocation in 37/75 patients followed for 6-24 years.

75 patients had closed treatment for a primary unilateral acute patellar dislocation. All patients were studied clinically, radiographically and for isokinetic thigh muscle performance a median of 11 (6-24) years later. During the follow-up, 37 patients had experienced recurrent dislocations. The functional outcomes were similar in patients with or without recurrence. Radiographically unstable patellar morphology, spontaneous reduction of the dislocation and low volume of hemarthrosis predisposed to recurrence.

Basketball injuries in a rural area.

This study was conducted to determine the frequency and nature of basketball injuries occurring in a rural setting. More than 6000 patients with sports-related injuries presented to a rural emergency department between June 1, 1988 and June 1, 1994. Of these patients, 1189 (19% of the total) were injured playing basketball. A chart abstraction form was utilized to retrospectively review injuries noting demographics, types and sites of injuries, as well as referral and treatment plans. Approximately two-thirds (66.4%) of those injured were males, with most injuries (53%) occurring during school-related activities. Almost four-fifths (78%) of injuries occurred between the ages of 10 and 19. The ankle (33.1%) was the body site most commonly injured, followed in frequency by finger injuries (19.3%), sprains and strains, which accounted for the majority (55%) of injuries. The most common mechanism of injury was recorded in which no contact with other players occurred (37.4%). The vast majority (99%) of injuries were managed as outpatients. The majority of cases (72%) were expected to recover within 2 weeks. Similarities were noted regarding sites of injury and age of distribution of patients when compared to the previous studies.
