Abstract EN
We present an unusual case of a chronic, irreducible intra-articular dislocation of the patella in an elderly nursing home resident.
The patient had been unable to weight bear for 3 weeks.
Radiographs in the emergency department (ED) confirmed the intra-articular dislocation with the superior pole lodged in the intercondylar notch.
She underwent two failed closed reduction attempts and subsequently required an open reduction under general anaesthesia.
