Tibial Tubercle–Midepicondyle Distance Can Be a Better Index to Predict the Outcome of Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Than Tibial Tubercle-Trochlear Groove Distance

Tibial Tubercle–Midepicondyle Distance Can Be a Better Index to Predict the Outcome of Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Than Tibial Tubercle-Trochlear Groove Distance

Purpose: To compare the clinical utility of tibial tubercle-midepicondyle (TT-ME) and tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) distances in predicting the risk for recurrent instability after isolated MPFL reconstruction. Methods: A consecutive series of patients with recurrent patellar dislocation...
