The inclusion rquirements were articles published in last twenty years, from 2003 to 2023 and with entire English text. Articles prior to 2003 as well as those with an inaccurate abstract were excluded.
Result: the literature review revealed that non-operative rehabilitation approaches can give positive result in patellar instability.
Conclusion: Non-operative rehabilitation may offer positive outcomes in addressing patellar instability. Consequently, further large-scale studies are warrented to establish more robust evidence and guide clinicians in formulating evidence-based treatment protocols.
