Dr. Vincent Villa – Lunch Meeting September 2025

This video presents a more complex case of patellar instability in a young female athlete with a history of dislocation and previous surgery. It demonstrates why a comprehensive evaluation is necessary, including X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, and then explains how several procedures can be combined to achieve lasting patellar stabilization. This content is valuable for understanding the rationale behind tailored surgery.
