Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using All-Soft Suture Anchors for Patellar Fixation.

Project description:The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL), which is critical for both patellar stability and normal kinematics of the patellofemoral joint, is disrupted in most patellar dislocations. Consequently, MPFL reconstruction is advocated in recurrent dislocations to restore native patellar constraints. Fixation of the MPFL graft to the medial border of the patella can be achieved through various methods, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. We present a technique for MPFL fixation to the patella using all-soft suture anchors, theoretically decreasing the risk of patellar fracture and articular surface violation.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction: Use of All-Suture Anchors for Patellar Fixation and a Dynamic Femoral Attachment.

Project description:The medial patellofemoral ligament is one of the most relevant structures preventing patellar dislocation. Numerous surgical techniques have been described to reconstruct this structure and patellar biomechanics. Complications after this procedure concern both patella and femur. This technique avoids tunneling the patella and the use of intraoperative radiographs by using the adductor magnus tendon insertion.

Minimally Invasive Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction With Patellar-Sided Tensioning Using All-Suture Anchors.

Project 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.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using FiberTape and Knotless SwiveLock Anchors.

Project description:Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction usually involves hamstring autografts and is associated with donor-site morbidity. Excellent short-term results with MPFL reconstruction using synthetic materials have been reported. Although synthetics do not sacrifice autologous tissues, their material properties are significantly different from those of biological tissues. Therefore, accurate surgical procedures are required to achieve excellent results. The purpose of this report was to describe our surgical method for MPFL reconstruction using FiberTape and knotless SwiveLock anchors.

Interference screws vs. suture anchors for isolated medial patellofemoral ligament femoral fixation: A systematic review.

Project description:PurposeThe present study aimed to systematically review and compare 2 femoral autograft fixation techniques, namely, interference screws and suture anchors, for isolated medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction in patients with recurrent patellofemoral instability at mid- to long-term follow-up.MethodsA literature search was performed in September 2020. All studies reporting the outcomes of primary isolated medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction for recurrent patellofemoral instability were considered for inclusion. Only studies reporting the type of femoral autograft fixation under examination were considered. Studies reporting data from patients with elevated tibial tuberosity-tibial groove, patella alta, and/or Dejour's trochlear dysplasia types C and D, were not included. Only articles reporting data with a minimum follow-up period of 18 months were considered.ResultsData from 19 studies (615 patients) were retrieved. The overall age was 24.4 ± 6.7 years (mean ± SD). The mean follow-up was 46.5 ± 20.9 months. There were 76 patients in the anchor group and 539 in the screw group. Comparability was found with regard to age and follow-up duration between the 2 study groups. There was comparability between the Kujala, Lysholm, and Tegner scores at baseline. At the last follow-up, no worthy differences were found in terms of mean Kujala (+2.1%; p = 0.04), Lysholm (+1.7%; p = 0.05), and Tegner (+15.8%; p = 0.05) scores. Although complications occurred almost exclusively in the screw cohort, no statistically significant difference was found.ConclusionFemoral autograft fixation through interference screws or suture anchors report similar clinical scores and rate of apprehension test, persistent joint instability, re-dislocations, and revisions. These results must be interpreted within the limitations of the present study.

Combined Medial Patellofemoral Ligament and Medial Quadriceps Tendon-Femoral Ligament Reconstruction With Single Knotless Anchor.

Project description:Lateral patellar dislocations represent a common orthopaedic condition in young, active individuals who experience patellar instability. Despite increasing interest in re-creating the natural biomechanics and native knee anatomy when performing medial patellar soft-tissue reconstructive procedures, there is no consensus among surgeons regarding the best techniques to use when reconstructing the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon-femoral ligament. This article details a method to reconstruct the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon-femoral ligament using a single graft and a single all-suture knotless anchor on the patella.

Combined Reconstruction of the Medial Patellofemoral Ligament With Quadricipital Tendon and the Medial Patellotibial Ligament With Patellar Tendon.

Project description:Although the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) has been neglected regarding its function in patellar stability, recently, its importance in terminal extension and during flexion has been recognized. Indications for reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament combined with the MPTL are extension subluxation, flexion instability, children with anatomic risk factors for patellar instability, and knee hyperextension associated with generalized laxity. We describe a combined reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament with quadricipital tendon and reconstruction of the MPTL with patellar tendon autografts.

Patellar Fixation With Suspensory Fixation Device in Single-Tunnel Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the primary soft-tissue stabilizer of the patellofemoral joint. Among the patellofemoral instability surgery options, MPFL reconstruction is the most preferred soft-tissue procedure. There is no gold-standard surgical treatment method in MPFL reconstruction, and many surgical methods have been described. We describe our surgical technique for MPFL reconstruction wherein the semitendinosus autograft is fixed to a single tunnel opened in the patella with a suspensory fixation device and only a single interference screw on the femoral side.

Combined Medial Patellofemoral Ligament, Medial Quadriceps Tendon-Femoral Ligament, and Medial Patellotibial Ligament Reconstruction for Patellar Instability: A Technical Note.

Project description:Lateral patellar dislocations often occur in a young, athletic population of recurrent dislocators with generalized laxity and an interest in returning to an active lifestyle. A recent appreciation for the distal patellotibial complex has directed surgeons toward attempting to re-create the native anatomy and knee biomechanics during medial patellar reconstructive procedures. By reconstructing the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) in addition to the medial patella-femoral ligament (MPFL) and medial quadriceps tendon-femoral ligament (MQTFL), the current article describes a potentially more stable construct that can be utilized in patients with subluxation with the knee in full extension, patellar instability with the knee in deep flexion, genu recurvatum, and generalized hyperlaxity. Additionally, the current technique utilizes a tibialis anterior allograft. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe, in detail, the current authors' technique for a combined MPFL, MQTFL, and MPTL reconstruction.

Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction with a looped semitendinosus tendon, using knotless anchor fixation on the patella and hybrid fixation on the femur.

Project description:Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is a reliable surgical method for stabilizing a dislocating patella, with multiple techniques previously described. Although outcomes are generally favorable, the procedure is technically demanding and relies on precise identification of native MPFL insertion sites, secure fixation of the graft to these sites, and appropriate graft tension. We describe a technique for MPFL reconstruction with a looped semitendinosus tendon. The 2 free limbs of the graft are secured into blind-end patellar sockets with knotless anchors, and the looped end is initially secured into a medial femoral socket with a button on the opposite (lateral) cortex. Use of an adjustable-loop button allows for gradual adjustment of graft tension, as well as re-tensioning after cycling of the knee, before final aperture fixation on the femur with an interference screw.
