Influencing factors of medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction for patellar dislocation / 中国修复重建外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective: To review the influencing factors of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction for patellar dislocation. Methods: The literature of MPFL reconstruction for patellar dislocation at home and abroad in recent years were summarized and analyzed. Results: The influencing factors such as the location of the femoral insertion point, the tension and the fixed angle of the grafts, the dysplasia of the femoral trochlear before operation, the abnormal tuberositas tibiae-trochlear groove value, the high position of the patellar, and the tilting angle of the patellar, are all the factors affecting the effectiveness of MPLF reconstruction. Conclusion: During MPFL reconstruction, the surgical techniques and elimination of other factors that caused patellar instability need to be focused in order to reduce the complications and operation failure.
