Minimally Invasive Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction With Patellar-Sided Tensioning Using All-Suture Anchors
Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is a commonly performed procedure to reestablish the checkrein to the lateral patellar translation in patients with recurrent patellofemoral instability. Graft tensioning is one of the most critical aspects of the procedure. Most surgical methods...

| description | Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is a commonly performed procedure to reestablish the checkrein to the lateral patellar translation in patients with recurrent patellofemoral instability. Graft tensioning is one of the most critical aspects of the procedure. Most surgical methods for MPFL reconstruction involve tensioning and securing the graft on the femoral side. In this article, we describe a technique for patellar-sided tensioning of the graft using all-suture anchors, which provides the surgeon with the ability to finely control graft tension with two independent graft limbs, while preserving patellar bone stock. |
