Metric measurements and attachment levels of the medial patellofemoral ligament: an anatomical study in cadavers

Clinics, 2008
OBJECTIVE: To determine the metric measurements and to verify the attachment levels of the medial patellofemoral ligament in human cadavers. METHODS: Seventeen knees (eight right and nine left knees) from 10 cadavers (nine male and one female) were ...

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction

International Journal of Medical Research and Review, 2017
Recurrent patellofemoral instability is a common disabling condition especially in young individuals. MPFL is the main stabilizer to lateral patellar displacement and its reconstruction will restore patellofemoral stability. Many techniques had been described to reconstruct MPFL with good results and few complications taking in consideration meticulous

Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Lateral Femoral Trochlea Healing after Isolated Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction: A Case Report [PDF]

Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2019
We report on a 12 years old female patient who had been diagnosed with patellofemoral instability – recurrent dislocation and anterior knee pain. Radiologic evaluation further revealed osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the lateral femoral trochlea.

Patelar Instability: Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reefing Versus Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction

Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (Archived), 2012
Although more than 100 operative procedures have been described for the treatment of patellar instability, there is no single universally successful procedure. Careful physical and imaging examination should be performed before the most appropriate operative treatment is chosen.

Simulation of varying femoral attachment sites of medial patellofemoral ligament using a musculoskeletal multi-body model

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2015
The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is a key structure in the treatment of habitual and traumatic patellofemoral instability. However, there exists little knowledge about its behaviour during deep knee flexion after femoral refixation.

Failure of isolated medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction in children: Risk factors and management

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2023
Background: Patellofemoral instability is a frequent cause of referral in pediatric sports medicine. Isolated medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is widely used and provides satisfactory outcomes with a low failure rate.

When Should Bony Correction Be Considered in Addition to Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction? Results of a Clinically Derived 2-Group Classification of Lateral Patellar Instability Based on 122 Patients at 2- to 5-Year Follow-up

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2023
Background: The need for concomitant bony procedures to realign pathoanatomic risk factors in addition to medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFL-R) remains unclear.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Gracilis Tendon Graft and “All Suture” Knotless Anchors for Patellar Fixation

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2023
Patellar dislocation is a frequent sports-related knee injury. The primary restraint to lateral translation of patella is medial patellofemoral ligament. Several treatments for patella dislocation have been described in the literature.

Arthroscopic reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament in skeletally immature patients using the modified sling procedure: a novel technique for MPFL reconstruction

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Background Patellar dislocation is common in young people. Although isolated anatomic double-bundle reconstruction of the MPFL is a common and effective surgical treatment for patellofemoral instability, concerns about the risk of injury to the epiphysis

Combined medial patellofemoral ligament and medial patellotibial ligament reconstruction in recurrent patellar instability: A systematic review and meta-analysis

World Journal of Clinical Cases, 2023
BACKGROUND The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL), along with the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) and medial patellomeniscal ligament, aid in the stabilization of the patellofemoral joint.
