Origin and insertion of the medial patellofemoral ligament: a systematic review of anatomy. [PDF]
PURPOSE: The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the major medial soft-tissue stabiliser of the patella, originating from the medial femoral condyle and inserting onto the medial patella.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction With Semitendinosus Autograft [PDF]
Patellar instability is a common complaint after traumatic dislocation of the patella. Traumatic dislocation always leads to tearing of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). Treatment consists of recovery from the traumatic injury, followed by reconditioning and physical therapy to strengthen the dynamic stabilizers of the patella.

ABSTRACT Purpose Anterior cruciate ligament injury increases the risk of knee osteoarthritis, possibly via early onset of knee pain and changes in musculoskeletal function. This study compared knee muscle strength and movement biomechanics during walking and forward lunge between individuals with and without knee pain after anterior cruciate ligament ...

Rehabilitation and Return to Sport After Medial Patellofemoral Complex Reconstruction
: The medial patellofemoral complex (MPFC) consists of the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament, which play a critical role stabilizing the patella against lateral translation.

Surgical reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament
Various treatments for patellofemoral instability have been proposed, such as lowering or medialization of the tibial tubercle, division of the lateral retinaculum, plication of the medial retinaculum, lowering of the vastus medialis, and trochleoplasty.

Abstract Purpose Lateral patellofemoral ligament (LPFL) reconstruction addresses medial patellar instability, but uncertainty regarding the optimal femoral attachment site may affect isometry and increase complication rates. This study aimed to establish landmarks for the femoral attachment of the LPFL graft based on in vivo isometry during active knee
