Reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament for recurrent patellar instability.
Background. The purpose of this study was to compare outcomes of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) repair or reconstruction. Methods. Fourteen knees that underwent MPFL repair and nine (F5, M4) knees that underwent reconstruction at our institution were evaluated for objective and subjective outcomes. The mean age at operation was 20.1 years for repair and 19.8 years for reconstruction. All...
متن کاملMedial Patellofemoral Ligament Repair Versus Reconstruction for Recurrent Patellar Instability
BACKGROUND Patellar instability remains a challenging problem for both the patient and surgeon. Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) repair has historically had poor results, and due to this, there is currently a trend toward reconstruction. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS This study was undertaken to investigate experience with repair versus reconstruction of the MPFL using a multifactorial treatment al...
متن کاملMedial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction for recurrent patellar instability.
The purpose of this study was to determine the value of reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) in the treatment of recurrent patellar dislocation and subluxation. We retrospectively reviewed 40 randomised patients with recurrent patellar dislocation or subluxation, who had undergone realignment surgery from July 1999 to December 2001. Group E consisted of 20 patients who ha...
متن کاملAssessment and management of chronic patellofemoral instability.
Chronic patellofemoral instability can be a disabling condition. Management of patients with this condition has improved owing to our increased knowledge of the functional anatomy of the patellofemoral joint. Accurate assessment of the underlying pathology in the unstable joint enables the formulation of appropriate treatment. The surgical technique employed in patients for whom non-operative m...
متن کاملValgus instability as a cause for recurrent lateral patellar dislocation: a new mechanism for patellofemoral instability?
An association between lateral patellar dislocation (LPD) and medial collateral ligament injury (MCL) has recently been demonstrated on MRI. The same valgus injury that disrupts the femoral MCL insertion can also cause a simultaneous MPFL tear at its femoral insertion, due to the close anatomical relationship of both ligamentous structures. Valgus laxity due to MCL-deficiency increases the Q-an...
