The purpose of this case study is to describe the evaluation and management of patellar dislocations and the different approaches used from providers in different countries.
An individual dislocated her left patella while traveling abroad and received subsequent care in Thailand, China, and the United States.
Nonoperative treatment protocols including manual closed reduction of the patella, casting of the leg, and rehabilitation exercises were employed.
Receipt of care when abroad can be challenging. The patient's knee range of motion and pain continued to improve when she was diligent about performing the home exercise program. This case highlights the importance of a thorough examination, a proper regimen of care, and patient counseling to ensure a full recovery and minimize the chance of re-injury.
本病例研究的目的是描述髌骨脱位的评估与管理,以及不同国家医疗服务提供者所采用的不同方法。
一名患者在国外旅行时左髌骨脱位,随后在泰国、中国和美国接受治疗。
采用了非手术治疗方案,包括髌骨手法闭合复位、腿部石膏固定及康复锻炼。
在国外接受治疗可能具有挑战性。当患者认真执行家庭锻炼计划时,其膝关节活动范围和疼痛状况持续改善。本病例突出了全面检查、适当护理方案以及患者咨询的重要性,以确保完全康复并将再次受伤的几率降至最低。
