Abstract
Patellar dislocation is an emergency, requiring immediate medical intervention, followed by the cooperation of the orthopedist and physiotherapist in returning to full health, as well as reducing the risk of relapse. The kneecap is an integral part of the knee joint and is responsible for its proper functioning. Among the methods of treatment used, there are conservative and surgical methods. The article is an attempt to answer the question whether there is an advantage of some methods over others. Materials available on the PubMed and Cochrane Library websites were used to obtain answers to the question asked. Due to different standards of management, the advantage of surgical over conservative has not been established, but there are researchable factors that may help in making therapeutic decisions.

Key words:
patellar dislocation, conservative treatment, surgical treatment
