Objective: To explore the relationship between ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM) and hip and knee muscle strength between patients with a history of patellar dislocation (PD) to healthy controls. Design: Case-control study. Setting: Orthopaedical specialty outpatient clinic at a tertiary hospital. Participants: 88 individuals were recruited; 44 individuals aged 16 years or older, of both sexes, with a history of at least one episode of atraumatic unilateral or bilateral PD requiring emergency care (14 males; 30 females; mean age 20 years) and 44 healthy (control) individuals (11 males; 33 females; mean age 21 years) matched for age, weight and height to PD cases. Intervention: Assessment of hip and knee strength and ankle dorsiflexion ROM. Outcome measures: Ankle dorsiflexion ROM was assessed through the lunge test with a goniometer. Hip and knee muscle strength was evaluated through isometric hand-held dynamometry. Differences between healthy and control individuals were assessed using Student T-Tests and Mann-Whitney U Test. Results: PD individuals presented with a reduced ankle dorsiflexion ROM (mean difference (MD): 9°; effect size (ES): 1.39; p<0.001) and generalised hip and knee weakness (MD range: 4.74 kgf to 31.4 kgf; ES range: 0.52 to 2.35; p<0.05) compared to healthy subjects. Conclusion: Individuals with a history of PD have reduced ankle dorsiflexion ROM and hip and knee muscle strength compared to healthy controls.
