Three bones come together to form the knee \u2014 the femur or thigh bone, tibia or leg bone and the patella. When the kneecap is dislocated, either by blunt force or irregular movement, surgery may be required to fix the torn ligaments or damage to the bones. If left untreated, a dislocated kneecap can result in damage to the surrounding cartilage. In this video, learn more about the function of the kneecap, the types and causes of patellar instability or kneecap dislocation and treatment options available.
