About
David Dejour is a leading orthopaedic surgeon and researcher whose work has fundamentally advanced the understanding and treatment of patellofemoral disorders and knee instability. His primary research areas include patellar dislocation, trochlear dysplasia, and the biomechanics of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Dejour is internationally recognized for developing the Dejour classification system for trochlear dysplasia, a cornerstone in diagnosing and surgically planning for patellar instability. His seminal contributions have shaped modern surgical techniques, including tibial tubercle osteotomy and medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction. In a recent high-impact systematic review and meta-analysis (2021, 30 citations), Dejour demonstrated that computer-assisted surgery and patient-specific instrumentation significantly improve the accuracy of tibial baseplate rotation in total knee arthroplasty compared to conventional methods. This work underscores his commitment to enhancing surgical precision and patient outcomes. With hundreds of publications and thousands of citations, Dejour’s research has been instrumental in guiding evidence-based practices for knee surgeons worldwide, making him a pivotal figure in orthopaedic innovation and education.
