Although the pathogenesis and mechanism of congenital skeletal dysplasia are better understood, progress in drug development and intervention research remains limited. Here we report that melatonin treatment elicits a mitigating effect on skeletal abnormalities caused by deficiency. In addition to our previous finding of endoplasmic reticulum stress upon deficiency, we found calcium (Ca) overload jointly contributed to -associated chondrodysplasias.

Purpose Of Review: Patella alta, which describes an abnormally proximally positioned patella, has become of particular interest as it has been identified as a potential factor in patellofemoral instability (PFI) and other common pediatric orthopedic conditions. The purpose of this review is to describe the condition, measuring techniques, and its association with pediatric orthopedic conditions, and to evaluate methods of correction of patella alta.
Recent Findings: Recent literature has explored the etiology of patella alta by investigating patellar height as age increases, with inconclusive findings as to whether the condition is congenital or acquired over time.
