During the years 2020 and 2021, there were fewer cases of knee dislocations. Male patients comprised 50%\u201356% of cases, with an average hospital stay of 11 days. Most cases were PCCL 0 (62%\u201372%) and predominantly affected patients aged 18\u201329 years. Anterior tibial dislocations were common among classified cases. Injuries included ligament ruptures, meniscus lesions and grade I soft\u2010tissue injuries. Patients with pre\u2010existing knee prostheses constituted 0%\u201316% annually. Treatment involved closed reduction, external fixation and surgeries like capsuloligamentous reconstructions and arthroscopic procedures. Revision knee arthroplasty was required in 2%\u20139% of cases, with obesity rates up to 7%.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study provides valuable insights into the epidemiology, incidence and treatment of knee dislocations in Germany, with a focus on demographic risk factors, treatment complexities and the impact of obesity and knee prostheses.
