Abstract

Introduction

The paediatric population present unique challenges to the knee surgeon, particularly when treating recurrent patellofemoral instability(PFI), the management of which is poorly standardised. Through the EPPIC BASK National Trainee Collaborative, we aimed to identify which procedures (and in which combination) are being used to surgically manage recurrent PFI in skeletally immature patients across the UK.

Methods

A retrospective national service evaluation via a trainee collaborative analysing local trust data between 1st January 2014 and 31st December 2019. Data from institutions registered for EPPIC was compiled and compared to the national guidelines for adults.
