The efficacy of medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction combined with tibial tuberosity transfer in the treatment of patellofemoral instability [PDF]
A systematic review of the literature was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction combined with tibial tuberosity transfer (TTT) in the treatment of patellofemoral instability.

Glomangiomyoma of the knee : a rare juxtasynovial presentation [PDF]
Glomus tumors are benign tumors typically located in the subcutis or deep dermis of the subungual region of the fingers. Histologically, glomus tumors are divided into three subtypes, in descending order of frequency: solid glomus tumor, glomangioma and ...

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

Effect of Lateral Retinacular Release on Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
Background: When performing a medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction, surgeons may place the MPFL graft under higher than anatomic tension to minimize the chance of recurrent instability.

The medial patellofemoral ligament: Review of the literature [PDF]
Acute patellar dislocations, most commonly in the lateral direction, carry high risk of recurrent patellar instability. The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is one of multiple ligaments found surrounding the patella and is one of the primary stabilizers of the patella.

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
