Outcomes After Derotational Distal Femoral Osteotomy for Recurrent Patellar Dislocations With Increased Femoral Anteversion: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
BACKGROUND: An increased femoral anteversion angle (FAA) is a predisposing factor for recurrent patellar dislocations (RPDs), and combined procedures including derotational distal femoral osteotomy (DDFO) have been shown to be good options. PURPOSE: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of com...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: An increased femoral anteversion angle (FAA) is a predisposing factor for recurrent patellar dislocations (RPDs), and combined procedures including derotational distal femoral osteotomy (DDFO) have been shown to be good options. PURPOSE: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of combined DDFO on clinical and radiological outcomes to treat RPDs with an increased FAA. STUDY DESIGN: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: This review was performed according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses) guidelines. We searched 7 databases for articles from inception to March 10, 2023, that reported outcomes after combined DDFO in patients with an RPD and increased FAA. Two reviewers independently extracted data and assessed study quality. Outcomes evaluated were functional scores, redislocation rates, complications, satisfaction, and radiological parameters. A meta-analysis was performed to pool functional scores, with data reported as mean differences (MDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS: Included were 8 studies of 189 knees from 183 patients, with a mean patient age of 22.4 years and a mean follow-up of 33.4 months. The mean preoperative FAA ranged from 31° to 42.70°, and the mean postoperative FAA ranged from 10° to 19.08°. Significant improvements were found in the Kujala score (MD, 26.96 [95% CI, 23.54 to 30.37]), Lysholm score (MD, 26.17 [95% CI, 22.13 to 30.22]), visual analog scale score for pain (MD, –2.61 [95% CI, –3.12 to –2.10]), and Tegner activity score (MD, 1.33 [95% CI, 0.86 to 1.79]). No subluxation or redislocation occurred. The overall complication rate was 10.6%, and most of the complications were pain (60%) and limited knee activity (20%). The overall satisfaction rate was 83.3%. The patellar tilt angle significantly decreased from 40.7° ± 11.9° to 20.5° ± 8.7° and from 26.35° ± 6.86° to 11.65° ± 2.85° in 2 studies. CONCLUSION: Combined DDFO was found to be safe and effective for the treatment of RPDs and an increased FAA by addressing both patellar dislocations and torsional malalignment. However, because of the lack of comparisons, it remains to be investigated when DDFO should be combined in such patients. |
