The efficacy of medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction combined with tibial tuberosity transfer in the treatment of patellofemoral instability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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.

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.

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.

Effect of Lateral Retinacular Release on Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2022
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]

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, 2018
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.

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
