Aim

This study looks for correlation between pre-operative MRI and intra-operative surgical findings regarding the site of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) rupture in first time patella dislocaters with the aim of confirming the reliability of this modality of imaging.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of all patients who were referred for MRI following patella dislocation was performed. The surgical and MRI findings of those who subsequently underwent MPFL repair were compared to look for any correlation.
