Article Synopsis
- Knee dislocations (KD) can lead to serious complications, particularly multiligament injuries, some of which require open surgical intervention instead of closed reduction.
- A study analyzed data from 2017 to 2021 involving 1,467 patients with KDs to identify risk factors for needing surgical reduction, focusing on associated fractures and their impact.
- Results showed that patients with concurrent tibia and fibula fractures had higher odds of requiring surgical reduction, while vascular injuries were linked to lower odds, highlighting the importance of recognizing these fracture patterns in treatment decisions.
