I had an arthroscopy and open lateral release in May 2009, as my knee cap was mal-tracking. This is a day case operation considering you are in good health so you will be able to go home on the same day. In the arthroscopic part of the procedure a small incision is made to your knee where a camera is inserted so that the surgeon can get a better look at the knee and see what is really causing your problem. This takes about 30-45 minutes.
After this, an incision between 7-10cm long is made down your knee and the surgeon will then cut through the tight retinaculum which will then allow your knee cap to sit properly in its groove. When I had mine, they cut through some of my nerves too which resulted in a loss of feeling down the left side of my knee, this doesn't always happen but when it does, you may not get the feeling back as it may be damaged beyond repair

Where are Medial and lateral condyles of the femur involved at?

A muscle that inserts on the greater tubercle of the humerus is most likely involved in what?
lateral rotation
What is the type of muscle movement that involved with the sternocliedomastoid muscle?

What is the most common approach for performing a lateral release of the knee?

What are the release dates for The Lateral Pass - 1927?
The Lateral Pass - 1927 was released on: USA: 16 October 1927
What region is superior to the lateral sulcus?
The insular cortex region is superior to the lateral sulcus in the brain. It is located deep within the lateral sulcus and is involved in various functions, including interoception, emotion, and self-awareness.
Muscles that helps you chew?
Muscles involved in chewing are the masseteres, temporalis, and medial and lateral pterygoids.
Lateral hypothalamus may be involved in?
The lateral hypothalamus is known to be involved in regulating hunger and feeding behavior. It is also implicated in reward processing and motivation, as well as in the sleep-wake cycle and arousal. Damage to the lateral hypothalamus can lead to decreased food intake and ultimately weight loss.
Salivary glands whose ducts open lateral to the lingual frenulum?
submandibular ducts
What part of the cerebellum is involved in planning rather than executing movement?
