Abstract Many techniques have been described for the reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) in patients with acute or recurrent instability. Most commonly, an MPFL hamstring tendon auto‐ or allograft is used, attached to the patella and medial femoral condyle using bone tunnels and various fixation implants to ensure stable ...

Abstract Purpose To determine the optimal knee flexion angle for graft tensioning of the MPFL reconstruction to minimize patellofemoral contact pressures. Methods Ten cadaveric knees underwent MPFL reconstruction using a hamstring auto‐graft. The graft was fixed to the patella at 40% of length from the proximal tip, secured with suture tied over a bone

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.

Approach to Patellar Dislocation Treatment: Review and Prospects
Lateral patellar dislocation treatment should be individualized by integrating risk stratification tools with assessment of anatomical risk factor complexity. A clinical decision flowchart is proposed to guide treatment strategy and highlight the importance of risk‐specific surgical planning.

Surface electromyography applications [PDF]
The electrophysiological techniques (neurography and needle electromyography) allow us an approach to the knowledge of the neuromuscular function. Electromyography obtains the electrical activity from the muscle in rest or in contraction (maximum and ...
