A member asked:
Which is the risk of partial patellectomy after two months of previous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: If the partial patellectomy is being done to relieve pain from post traumatic fracture joint surface irregularity, the main risk is that it does not significantly relieve the pain. Another option to consider is a partial knee replacement (patellofemoral arthroplasty).
