Patellar instability occurs when the kneecap moves outside of this groove. There are two types of patellar instability. The first is known as a traumatic patellar dislocation. This is most often the result of an injury to the knee. In a patellar dislocation, the patella gets pushed completely out of the groove.

Treatments for knee instability Rest, ice and elevation to reduce pain and swelling. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which can also reduce pain and swelling. A knee brace to support the knee as it heals. Physical therapy to improve strength and mobility.

What is the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL)? The medial patellofemoral ligament is a part of the complex network of soft tissues that stabilize the knee. The MPFL attaches the inside part of the patella (kneecap) to the long bone of the thigh, also called the femur.
We use CPT 27428 for MPFL reconstruction.... MPFL is an extra-articular Ligament (medial)...even though there is work performed inside the knee. 27427 is what we use.
DRG Group #562-563 - Fx, sprian, strn and dislocation except femur, hip, pelvis and thigh with MCC.
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code S83.006A and a single ICD9 code, 836.3 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
