Clinical outcomes of femoral bone tunnel fixation and onlay fixation techniques for medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFLR) for treatment of recurrent patellofemoral instability yields excellent outcomes and has been shown to be safe. Femoral fixation can be performed using various methods, however the role of onlay techniques when compared to bone tunnels for femoral fixation...

Combined Trochleoplasty, Tibial Tuberosity Transfer, and Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction in Recurrent Patellar Instability: Indications, Surgical Strategy, and Outcomes – A Narrative Review

Background. Recurrent patellar instability is a multifactorial condition associated with trochlear dysplasia, abnormal extensor mechanism alignment, and medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) insufficiency. Isolated procedures may not address all anatomical abnormalities, leading to persistent instability. Therefore, co...

Preoperative varus ≥10° does not compromise outcome after medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, whereas postoperative joint-line convergence angle and insert thickness influence functional results: A matched-pair analysis.

PURPOSE To evaluate functional outcomes and implant survival following medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) in patients with anteromedial osteoarthritis and preoperative varus deformity ≥10° and to identify postoperative alignment thresholds that optimize outcomes. METHODS Patients with preoperative varus...

Comparable clinical outcomes and redislocation rates after isolated medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction in patients with and without borderline anatomical risk factors for patellar instability

Isolated MPFL reconstruction provides reliable and durable mid‐ to long‐term outcomes in carefully selected patients with borderline anatomical risk factors, with clinical results and redislocation rates comparable to those observed in standard patients.

Jumping patella is associated with inferior clinical outcomes after MPFL reconstruction for recurrent patellar dislocation: a retrospective cohort study

Although the combined procedure improved knee function and reduced redislocation rates to some extent, it could not significantly correct the persistent maltracking or jumping sign postoperatively.
