Trochlear dysplasia is a condition in which the femoral trochlea has an abnormal shape and function. Trochleoplasty aims to change the shape of the trochlea in order to stabilize an unstable patella. This study compared clinical outcomes and recurrent instability after surgery between sulcus deepening trochleoplasty (Lyon) and Bereiter trochleoplasty in patients with high-grade trochlear dysplasia.We conducted a meta-analysis comparing Bereiter and Lyon trochleoplasty based on PRISMA guidelines regarding clinical outcome and recurrent instability for high-grade trochlear dysplasia. Searching on five databases, we found 11 eligible studies with a total of 520 subjects to be analysed. Studies were qualitatively and quantitatively evaluated using Review Manager 5.4 or equivalent.Both techniques showed no differences in sulcus angle, return-to-sport rate, and satisfactory rate. The IKDC and Kujala scores showed good outcomes but were not significantly different. IKDC score was not different after analysis between Bereiter and Lyon techniques. The pooled improvement of IKDC score on both subgroups was 24.39 (95% CI 21.14-27.65). A pooled analysis of 10 studies found that the Kujala score did not differ between groups with Bereiter and Lyon techniques. The total pooled mean difference of both groups was 25.87 (95% CI 21.70-30.05).None of the techniques analysed highlighted an absolute superiority. Clinical relevance showed both techniques have good clinical outcomes, fewer complications, and recurrent instability for high-grade trochlear dysplasia.
