The authors performed arthroscopic LPRR OSM or TSM combined with joint debridement in 125 patients of LPCS from September 2014 to December 2017 , Randomization description: The method of simple random sampling was used to randomly divide the cases into the arthroscopic LPRR OSM group (OSM group) and TSM group (TSM group), Blinding description: Data collectors were blinded to the treatment assignment when collecting any of the outcomes. The patient did not know exactly which arthroscopy procedure was used. N/A Lateral patellar compression syndrome (LPCS) is a disease of musculoskeletal disorder with pathological manifestations of the increased lateral patellofemoral joint pressure, which is caused by the long-term lateral tilt of patella, the adaptive tightening of lateral patella retinaculum (LPR), and the long-term stress imbalance of medial and lateral articular surfaces. The main clinical manifestations are patellofemoral joint pain, abnormal patella trajectory and articular cartilage injury . LPCS has become one of the main causes of anterior knee pain . At present, the prevalence of anterior knee pain in the whole population is as high as 8.5%-17.0%, but women are obviously higher than men. Many studies have confirmed the effectiveness of lateral patella retinaculum releasing (LPRR), extension of LPR, and lateral patelloplasty . However, the gold standard of correction surgery for LPCS currently has not been determined. In 1974, Merchant et al proposed the LPRR for the treatment of LPCS. Nowadays, LPRR was the most widely used in clinical practice. The methods of the release include open incision, arthroscopic assisted incision and arthroscopic closure [8-10]. Among them, the most widely used method is arthroscopic closing release. Arthroscopic closure release includes arthroscopic LPRR either outside synovial membrane (OSM) or through synovial membrane (TSM). At present, there is no research to compare the clinical efficacy of the above two methods. So, the goal of this study was to investigate the method and efficacy of arthroscopic LPRR either OSM or TSM for the treatment of LPCS and compared the overcomes between arthroscopic LPRR OSM and TSM to find out which of the two methods is superior. Before and after surgery, Lysholm score, patella medial shift, Kujala score, VAS score and surgical complications were collected for evaluating clinical overcomes.. Intervention 1: Control group: rthroscopic LPRR either outside synovial membrane (OSM). Intervention 2: . Intervention 3: . Intervention 4: Intervention group: arthroscopic LPRR outside synovial membrane (OSM). Intervention 5: . Intervention 6: Control group: arthroscopic LPRR through synovial membrane (TSM). Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: Efficacy and experience of arthroscopic lateral patella retinaculum releasing through/outside synovial membrane for the treatment of lateral patellar compression syndrome When: starting in September 2014 and starting 24 months for publication To whom: The datasets used and/or analysed during the current study are available from the corresponding author on reasonable request. Conditions: All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 13.0 statistical software (SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA). Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation, and t test and paired z test were used for statistical analysis. The frequency of complications was analyzed using Chi Square with Yates Correction and the Fisher's Exact test. G*Power 3.1.9.2 software (http://www.gpower.hhu.de/) was used for statistical power analysis. P ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Timepoint: . Method of measurement: . Sixty six cases (23 males and 43 females) were included in the TSM group, aged 16-65 years with an average age of 48.3 years. Thirty-two cases were in the left knees and 34 cases in the right knees. The medical history was 6-29 months, with an average of 18.5 months. Thirty cases had traumatic history. Arthroscopic articular cartilage injury was assessed according to outerbridge classification [11]. Grade I-II was in 51 cases, grade III in 10 cases, and grade IV in 5 cases. Twenty one cases had meniscus injury, 10 cases synovial fold hyperplasia and 8 cases free body (Table 1).Fifty-nine cases were included in the OSM group, including 18 males and 41 females. The age ranged from 17 to 66 years, with an average age of 49.2 years. Twenty-eight cases were in the left knees and 31 cases in the right knees. The medical history was 7-29 months, with an average of 19.1 months. Twenty-seven cases had traumatic history. Outbridge classifications were as follows: Grade I-II was in 45 knee, III 8 knee, and IV 6 knee. Twenty cases had meniscus injury, 8 cases synovial fold hyperplasia and 8 cases free body (Table 1). Timepoint: before surgery. Method of measurement: gender， age, the left or right side of knee ,The medical history, cases of traumatic history. Arthroscopic articular cartilage injury assessed according to outerbridge classification [11]. cases of meniscus injury, synovial fold hyperplasia and free body (Table 1). In the TSM group, all patients were followed up for 1.5-5 years, with an average of 3.4 years. Sixty-six patients had pain when going up and down stairs and squatting down before surgery. Anterior knee pain was significantly reduced or disappeared in all patients 1 month after surgery. In 1 year after surgery, 55 (83.3%) of the patients were able to go up and down the stairs normally and 11 cases had pain when going up and down stairs and the function was slightly limited. 51 cases of anterior knee pain were basically disappeared at 1 year after surgery, and 15 cases had occasional pain. Lysholm scores were as follows: 44 cases were excellent, 12 cases good, 7 cases better, and 3 cases poor. The effect of LPRR alone in 3 cases of severely damaged articular cartilage was poor, but the pain was relieved to some degree. The excellent rate was 84.8%. Five patients had haemarthrosis in the postoperative period, and the symptomatic treatment such as puncture and drainage was improved. Three cases of joint adhesion were relieved after manual loosening. Infection, deep vein thrombosis and other complications were not observed. The Lysholm scores were 77.4±2.7 before surgery and 94.3±3.4 at the last follow-up, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The medial pushing distances of patella were 0.76±0.21 cm before operation and 1.25±0.27 cm at the last follow-up (P<0.001). The Kujala scores were 60.4±8.6 before surgery and 84.5±9.2 points at the last follow-up (P<0.00l). The VAS were 7.5 ± 2.5 before operation and 2.3 ± 1.3 at the final follow-up (P < 0.001) (Table 2).All cases in the OSM group were followed up for 1.5-5 years with an average of 3.5 years (Figure 2). Fifty-nine patients had pain when going up and down stairs and squatting down before surgery. Anterior knee pain was significantly reduced or disappeared in all patients 1 month after surgery. In the first year after surgery, 50 (84.7%) cases were able to go up and down stairs normally, and 9 cases had pain when going up and down stairs and its function was slightly limited. Fifty cases of anterior knee pain were basically disappeared at 1 year after surgery, and 9 cases had occasional pain. Lysholm scores had excellent in 43 cases, good in 8 cases, better in 6 cases, and poor in 2 cases. The effect of LPRR alone in 2 cases of severely damaged articular cartilage was poor, but the pain was lower than before. The excellent rate was 86.4%. Postoperative complications such as infection, joint adhesion, joint hematoma, and deep vein thrombosis were not reported. The Lysholm scores were 76.7±2.8 before surgery and 95.4±3.5 at the last follow-up, and its difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The medial pushing distances of patella were 0.78±0.23 cm before operation and 1.28±0.19 cm at the last follow-up (P<0.001). The Kujala scores were 60.7±8.7 at preoperation and 84.2±8.9 at the final follow-up (P<0.001). The VAS scores were 7.4±2.4 before surgery and 2.1±1.2 points at the final follow-up (P < 0.001) (Table 2).There were no significant differences of Lysholm rating and scoring, medial pushing distance of patella, Kujala score, and VAS before surgery and at the last follow-up between the OSM group and TSM group (P>0.05, respectively). However, the number of occurrences of joint hematoma and adhesion was significantly higher in the TSM group than the OSM group (P=0.024, Table 2). Timepoint: before surgery and at the last follow-up. Method of measurement: Each patient was followed up by telephone or outpatient visit every month after surgery and every 3 months after 3 months after surgery. Lyshohn score (excellent: greater than 90 points, good: 80-90 points, better: 70-79 points, poor: less than 70 points), medial shift of patella, Kujala score, VAS, and surgical complications were used and evaluated for efficacy evaluation[6, 12-15]. Five patients had haemarthrosis in the postoperative period, and the symptomatic treatment such as puncture and drainage was improved. Three cases of joint adhesion were relieved after manual loosening. Infection, deep vein thrombosis and other complications were not observed. Timepoint: after surgery. Method of measurement: Follow up the intraoperative and postoperative complications closely.
