Abstract

Background: To study the functional outcome of surgical management in Hoffa’s disease. Methods: This prospective study was conducted in the Department of Orthopaedics in a tertiary health care centre between 1st January 2020 and 31st December 2021. A total of three patients (2 males and 1 female) with Hoffa’s disease were included in the study. Results: “Tegner–Lysholm score” was used for evaluation of function, and the mean Tegner–Lysholm score was 93. All the three patients had normal range of motion at 1 year follow-up. Conclusion: Hoffa’s disease has low incidence, and hence diagnosing the condition correctly is of utmost importance for its proper management.
