Patellar luxation is often a diagnosis at a glance. The malposition of the patella lateral to the knee joint can be seen particularly well in a lateral comparison. In most cases, a clear knee joint effusion, which appears in the form of a so-called &#8220;dancing patella&#8221;, is palpable.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">The apprehension test of the patella can also be used to detect a tendency to dislocation in cases where patellar dislocation has occurred but the patella has spontaneously reduced. However, this should only be performed with great caution, as it can lead to new dislocations after a dislocation has already taken place.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7644642 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7644642\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2ee3768\" data-id=\"2ee3768\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bf27a1f elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"bf27a1f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orthogruber.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Patellaluxation-2-768x512.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-3396\" alt=\"Ein Knie ist auf einem R\u00f6ntgen abgebildet.
