A Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study of the Significance of the Distal Femoral Physis During Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
BACKGROUND Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction in adults often utilizes screw fixation in the distal femur. The aim was to define the safety of similar fixation in young patients, with respect to their open physis. PURPOSE To define the age-related relationship between the femoral insertion of the MPFL and the medial aspect of the distal femoral physis on magnetic resonance i...

Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) represents the main restraint against lateral patellar displacement. The MPFL insertion at the patella is up to 30 mm wide and is located along the upper half of the medial patellar rim. The femoral insertion of the MPFL is approximately 10 mm distal to the apex of the adductor tubercle and 16 mm proximal to the medial epicondyle. Since most of the patients...
متن کاملFailed medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction: Causes and surgical strategies
Patellar instability is a common clinical problem encountered by orthopedic surgeons specializing in the knee. For patients with chronic lateral patellar instability, the standard surgical approach is to stabilize the patella through a medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction. Foreseeably, an increasing number of revision surgeries of the reconstructed MPFL will be seen in upcoming ...
متن کاملA simple technique for reconstruction of medial patellofemoral ligament with bone-fascia tunnel fixation at the medial margin of the patella: a 6-year-minimum follow-up study
BACKGROUND Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction has become an accepted technique to treat patellofemoral instability, and numerous surgical techniques have been described to reconstruct the MPFL. We describe a MPFL reconstruction procedure where bone-fascia tunnel fixation occurs at the medial margin of the patella for recurrent patellar dislocation. OBJECTIVE MPFL reconstruct...
