Torsional deformity in patients with patellofemoral instability

Description

There is a lack of consensus in the treatment of torsional deformity of the femur in patients with patellofemoral instability. The International Patellofemoral Study Group (IPSG) represents an international sample of orthopedic surgeons with a specific interest and experience in patellofemoral joint disorders. Using an online survey, members of the IPSG aimed to evaluate current knowledge and discover potential controversies in the treatment of torsional deformity of the femur in patients with patellofemoral instability.
