Core Tip	Extra-articular knee resection is required in cases of tumor invasion of the knee joint. To the best of our knowledge, there are three reports of patellar dislocations after replacement of tumor endoprosthesis. We report a case of patellar dislocation after extra-articular knee resection and knee reconstruction with a tumor endoprosthesis without its malalignment. When distal femoral replacement with extra-articular knee resection is planned and the quadriceps muscle is assumed to be resected asymmetrically, proximal realignment may be considered during primary surgery if there is concern regarding an imbalance in the forces controlling the patellar tracking.
