The Medial Patellofemoral Ligament
Orthopedics, 2008There has been substantial progress in our understanding of the medial patellofemoral ligament during the past 10 years. This structure is the primary static soft-tissue restraint to lateral patellar displacement. Substantial alteration of normal patellar tracking occurs after sectioning of the ligament.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
Orthopedics, 2004This article presents a simple and reproducible technique to reconstruct the medial patellotemeral ligament with autogenous tissue following the basic principles of all ligament reconstruction.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2012Lateral instability of the patella is a common problem that often requires reconstruction of the proximal soft tissue restraints. The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) has been demonstrated to be the major soft tissue stabilizer to prevent abnormal lateral displacement of the patella.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
JBJS Reviews, 2015In the general population, the overall incidence of acute patellar dislocation is 5.8 per 100,000 people in the United States1. The rate of patellar dislocation is estimated to be highest in the age group of ten to seventeen years, with reported rates of 29% to 43%1-3.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine, 2010Medial patellofemoral reconstruction is used to treat episodic lateral patellar instability that is due to laxity of medial retinacular patellar stabilizers. The ideal candidate has minimal pain between episodes of patellar instability, and seeks medical care primarily to address the occasional dislocation or subluxation.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine, 2019Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFLr) is the most frequent surgical procedure performed in patients with chronic lateral patellar instability (CLPI). Depending on the fixation technique used, there are 2 types of MPFLr: the static and the dynamic.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
Techniques in Orthopaedics, 1997Summary:Recurrent lateral dislocation of the patella is usually treated with some combination of lateral release, proximal realignment or medial reefing, and distal realignment. Significant problems with redislocation and anterior knee pain after surgical intervention may be caused in part by poor ...

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Repair
Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine, 2019Medial patellofemoral ligament repair (MPFL) represents an alternative method of medial soft tissue management in patients with lateral patellar instability. MPFL repair is best indicated in patients with isolated patellar- or femoral-based avulsions, which can be identified on preoperative MRI.

Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction for subluxating patellofemoral arthroplasty
The Knee, 2011Patellofemoral joint (PFJ) arthroplasty has become a successful operation for patellofemoral osteoarthritis. The post-operative complication of patella subluxation is uncommon. We report the stabilisation of a subluxating patella following PFJ arthroplasty using autogenous hamstring tendons.

Postoperative Bracing after Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
The Journal of Knee Surgery, 2023AbstractIt is unclear if bracing is necessary after isolated medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFLr) for recurrent patellar instability. We hypothesize that patients who did not use a brace will have similar outcomes to those who were braced postoperatively. A retrospective review of patients who underwent isolated MPFLr from January 2015
