What often happens is people have had one surgery or the other (or both) and they’re looking for information about what to expect after surgery, when they will regain range of motion, and a […]
Exploring Risk Factors for Atraumatic Medial Patellar Facet Lesions
This study was to identify clinical and radiographic risk factors for medial patellar facet lesions in patients without a history of trauma or patellar instability.
