Arthroscopic Excision of Bipartite Patella
2021
Abstract A bipartite patella usually presents as an incidental finding on radiographs because most cases are asymptomatic. However, some patients may present with pain and functional limitations. Conservative treatment is sufficient to resolve symptoms in most cases; however, a small minority of patients may require surgical management. Recent studies have reported excellent results with an arthroscopic approach. This Technical Note details our procedure for treating a symptomatic bipartite patella that has not resolved with conservative care.
