A member asked:
What are the risks involved with lateral release surgery in knee?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No pain relief.: Make sure that your surgeons has lots of experience with lateral releases. If they are done for the wrong reasons, they don't work very well. Generally speaking, there should be a component of lateral patellar tilt on xray and exam.
