Abstract
CASE:: Combined medial and lateral patellar instability is exceptionally rare with only 3 reported cases to date. Here, we present the case of a 37-year-old White woman with multiple recurrent medial and lateral patellar instability. After failure of conservative care with bracing and therapy, she underwent surgical stabilization with medial and lateral allograft reconstruction. CONCLUSION:: This case provides an example of the condition and successful surgical follow-up.
