ABSTRACT
Patellofemoral disorders can significantly impact the quality of life and physical activity of pediatric patients. Although conservative treatments are usually successful. Pediatric patellofemoral surgery is a valuable treatment option for children with refractory patellofemoral disorders. However, it is important to recognize and manage potential complications that may arise. Healthcare providers should educate parents and caregivers about the possible complications, closely monitor post-operative progress, and tailor rehabilitation programs to each child’s specific needs. The potential complications; infection, joint stiffness, patellar instability, persistent pain, growth plate complications, scar tissue formation, medial instability, other complications and solutions.
