AbstractA patellar dislocation is usually understood to mean a lateral dislocation of the patella. Medial patellar dislocations have mainly been described after surgical treatment, such as release of the lateral retinaculum. Here a case of medial patellar dislocation is reported which did not occur subsequent to surgery. Wilberg-III patella, genu recurvatum with patella alta and a m. vastus medialis insertion widely distal to the patella were predisposing factors.
