Abstract

Background: With respect to various therapeutic outcomes achieved in the treatment of patients with KNEE DISLOCATION, the present study was performed with the aim of determining the EPIDEMIOLOGY and therapeutic outcomes of KNEE DISLOCATION in patients referring to Taleghani hospital, 1989-2001.Materials and methods: It was an existing data type study. Initial data including personal characteristics, therapeutic approach, period of follow up, and therapeutic outcomes were all recorded.Results: Between 1989 and 2001, 25 patients have been referred to Taleghani hospital with the diagnosis of KNEE DISLOCATION. The study population included 24 males and 1 female with the mean age of 35±13 years. Vehicles in 60% of the cases caused trauma. KNEE DISLOCATION was reduced within 5 hours in 25% of the patients. 12 (48%) had popliteal artery injury, of which 7 (58%) required vein graft and 3 (25%) led to AMPUTATION. 12 (48%) were treated by prompt reduction and splitting. Reduction, ligament reconstruction and meniscal repair were performed by orthopedic surgeon in 16 (64%).Transient proneal nerve injury was reported in 7 (36%) patients, of which 2 (28%) were recovered within 5±3 months. Proneal nerve injury was accompanied by fracture of femur and tibia in 48% of the patients. Posterior KNEE DISLOCATION was seen in 8 (32%) patients. 5 cases were presented with simultaneous occurrence of floating knee and ipsilateral KNEE DISLOCATION. Radiography had detected dislocation in 20 (80%) cases, however, autobiography and surgical exploration had revealed arterial injuries in 36% of the cases. 88% of the patients had maintained mean range of motion of 104±4.7 degree. The limb salvage success rate was 88% with the 12% remaining limbs required AMPUTATION.Conclusion: The reported incidence of KNEE DISLOCATION was a little bit higher than previous studies. Motor vehicle accidents were the most common cause of KNEE DISLOCATION. Immediate diagnosis and reduction as well as accurate follow up are of utmost importance.
