The Ali Krogius procedure for treatment of patellofemoral instability should be regarded as obsolete even in skeletally immature patients.
Abstract
Several interventions are established for treating patellofemoral instability in adults. Fewer exist for pediatric patients without damaging the epiphysis. The Ali Krogius (AK) method is currently still being used. Most studies are not current and report varying results in small patient population. The aim of this study is to determine the long-term results of the AK method.
