Abstract

The indications for and results of arthroscopic release of the lateral alar ligament are evaluated. This technique was used exclusively in cases of anterior patellar pain due to lateral hypertension resulting from disalignment of the extensor apparatus. It was used on 21 knees with a follow-up of 15-36 months. Excellent or good results were obtained in 85% of the cases, according to both subjective and objective evaluation.
