Double patella. A case of duplication in the coronal plane

J Gasco, JM Del Pino, and F Gomar-Sancho

A case of duplication of the patella in the coronal plane is reported. Previously reported cases of double patella have shown sagittal or vertical duplication, and some have been associated with multiple epiphyseal dysplasia. In our case, excision of one patella and realignment of the extensor mechanism relieved symptoms of giving-way.
