Troubleshooting the Femoral Attachment During Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction [PDF]

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2015
The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) has been recognized as an important soft tissue restraint in preventing lateral patellar translation. As many patients with acute or chronic patellar instability will have a deficient MPFL, reconstruction of this ligament is becoming more common. Appropriately, significant research has been undertaken regarding
