Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
La inestabilidad patelofemoral es un trastorno frecuente de la rodilla en el paciente esqueléticamente inmaduro. Este cuadro plantea diversos desafíos en esta población que requieren una comprensión de la anatomía y la biomecánica para formular un plan de tratamiento que prevenga la reluxación y permita el regreso a las actividades. En esta revisión, se analizan las distintas formas de presentación y las alternativas terapéuticas, y se ofrece una guía práctica para el manejo integral de esta compleja condición clínica.
