Interesting, did they do both of yours via the scope or a full incision? Mine was the latter, though I understand some do it through the scope as well, so he used both techniques on my knee. Thankfully my patella is back to where it should be, now the real work begins in PT to balance out all of the muscles so the patella will actually stay where it is supposed to be.
