Combined Reconstruction of the Medial Patellofemoral Ligament With Quadricipital Tendon and the Medial Patellotibial Ligament With Patellar Tendon

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2016
Although the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) has been neglected regarding its function in patellar stability, recently, its importance in terminal extension and during flexion has been recognized.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction With Growth Modulation in Children With Patellar Instability and Genu Valgum

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2020
Patellar instability is common in the second decade, and genu valgum is a risk factor for patellar instability. In skeletally immature patients, genu valgum can be gradually corrected using less-invasive, well-established, growth-modulation techniques ...

Surgical versus non-surgical interventions for treating patellar dislocation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Patellar dislocation occurs when the patella disengages completely from the trochlear (femoral) groove. Following reduction of the dislocation, conservative (non-surgical) rehabilitation with physiotherapy may be used.

Clinically insignificant association between anterior knee pain and patellofemoral lesions which are found incidentally. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Patellofemoral chondral lesions are frequently identified incidentally during the arthroscopic treatment of other knee pathologies. A role has been described for arthroscopic debridement of such lesions when symptoms are known to originate from pathology

All-Soft-Tissue Medial Patellofemoral Complex Reconstruction for Revisions and Skeletally Immature Knees

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques
The medial patellofemoral complex provides the primary static restraint to lateral patellar translation and is composed of the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament.

Anatomic Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Without Bone Tunnels or Anchors in the Patella

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2018
Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is an essential component of surgical treatment for recurrent dislocation of the patella. Various techniques have been described, most of which potentially increase the risk of patellar fracture. We present a

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

open access: yesMacedonian 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.

Double-Bundle Technique for the Reconstruction of the Proximal Medial Patellofemoral Complex, Using the First Layer of the Quadriceps Tendon as a Graft

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques
The proximal medial femoral patellar complex is the main medial stabilizer of the patella. It is formed by the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon-femoral ligament.
