This study aimed to investigate the clinical effects of combining knee extension mechanism (EM) with rearrangement in the treatment of recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD).Eighty-four patients with RPD admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University were included. In this work, all patients received routine computed tomography (CT) examinations. In addition, the evaluation factors of EM combined with rearrangement therapy in RPD patients were analyzed using logistic regression.Lysholm and Kujula scores, femoral canal width, patellar canal width, patellar tilt angle (PTA), and lateral patellar displacement (LPD) were significantly increased at 1 and 3 years after treatment (p < 0.05). LPA was significantly decreased, while the tibial tuberosity trochlear groove of the femur (TT-TG) demonstrated no considerable differences (p > 0.05). The good rate of the short-term Insall-Salvati index was 78.6%, and that of the long-term Insall-Salvati index was 76.1%. The combination of the knee extension device and rearrangement therapy has a higher rate of short-term and long-term Insall-Salvati index (ISI) excellence. In addition, the range of motion of the knee joint increased significantly, and the Q Angle decreased significantly (p < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age and ISI were highly correlated with the evaluation of therapeutic effects in patients with RPD.EM combined with rearrangement in the treatment of RPD had positive short-term and long-term efficacy, high application value, and age, which can be popularized in clinical applications and have positive diagnostic value.
