Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I twisted and dislocated my knee eight weeks ago whilst walking uphill. I had an MRI just over two weeks ago and it showed that there was focal bone marrow bruising at the lateral margin of the trochlear. A minimally depressed fracture at the inferomedial margin of the patella with adjancent bone marrow bruising. A partial thickness tear at the patellar attachment of the medial retinaculum and moderate patellofemoral dysplasia . My doctor did not really explain what any of that means and has referred me to a specialist. Can anyone explain this and let me know what sort of treatment options there are?
He has rightlyrefered to specialist. There is fracture in patela andtear of attachment of patela.with displacement of patella. All these can be surgicaly corected by weiring.
