“…Extremity injuries were the most common injuries in the study, a common finding in all studies on paediatric motorcycle and ATV use 9 . Orthopaedic procedures were therefore the most common operations performed on patients in the study period.…”

Patellar Dislocation in the United States: Role of Sex, Age, Race, and Athletic Participation

An estimated 25% of all knee complaints in sports medicine clinics are related to the patellofemoral joint, and patellar instability represents a common complaint among young athletic cohorts. 1 Patellar instability, which includes both subluxation and complete patellofemoral dislocation, com-prises~2 to 3% of all knee injuries. 2 However, the etiology of patellofemoral instability is multifactorial. Proposed risk factors including history of prior patellar dislocation, young age, female gender, family history of patellofemoral instability, aberrant osseous architecture (patella alta, trochlea dysplasia, increased tibial tubercle-trochlear groove distance), soft tissue factors (joint hypermobility, medial patellofemoral ligament disruption, weakened vastus medialis), and limb malalignment. Furthermore the sequelae of patellofemoral instability are well documented, with recurrent dislocation rates between 15 and 50% 3-5 and other long-term complaints Keywords ► patella ► dislocation ► patellofemoral ► instability ► epidemiology

“…14 Notably children involved in ATVC sustain injuries from every body system, implore high risk riding practices, and demonstrate a high rate of recidivism. [14][15][16][17][18] Due to their vulnerability, some reports suggest minors less than 11 years old should not be allowed to ride ATVs. 19 Our study found a significantly increased incidence of ATVC in children less than 16 years old compared with those involved in MCC.…”

To determine the incidence and severity of all-terrain vehicle crashes (ATVCs) compared with motorcycle crashes (MCCs) in all critically injured patients. Prospective data were retrospectively reviewed on 1840 patients involved in ATVCs and MCCs admitted to a rural level one trauma center over 16 years. ATVC patients (n = 655) were younger (25 vs 38, P < 0.0001), more likely female (20% vs 11%, P < 0.001), less severely injured (13.5 vs 16, P < 0.0001), had similar Glasgow Coma Score (13.3 vs 13.4, p = NS), less helmet use (6% vs 69%, P < 0.0001), more closed head injuries (59.7% vs 54.3%, P < 0.05), more facial injuries (16.9% vs 12.5%, P < 0.05), and lower mortality rate (2.8% vs 5.9%, P < 0.01) compared with MCC patients (n = 1172). Pediatric patients involved in ATVC were more common (29.8% vs 4.8%, P < 0.001), had decreased helmet use (12% vs 59%, P < 0.001) and decreased mortality (3.5% vs 14.3%, P < 0.01). Further injury prevention efforts regarding helmet use and increased regulations regarding ATVCs are needed to decrease the morbidity associated with these recreational vehicles.
