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

ABSTRACT: 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.

Double-bundle medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction with a single patellar tunnel.

Project description:Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is an established method to prevent patellofemoral instability. Nevertheless, the anatomy and the biomechanical behavior of native MPFL are still under investigation, but in recent years they have become more defined. We propose a technique for MPFL reconstruction based on the results of recent anatomic studies regarding the patellar insertion of the MPFL. A double-bundle MPFL is reconstructed by use of the semitendinosus tendon passed through a single patellar tunnel, which crosses the patella from the midpoint of its medial border until its superolateral corner is reached. This method permits a strong patellar fixation, potentially reducing the risk of patellar fracture compared with double-patellar tunnel techniques. Moreover, it requires no fixation devices at the patella and only a single interference screw on the femoral side.

Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction procedure using a suspensory femoral fixation system.

Project description:Recurrent patellar dislocation has recently been treated with anatomic medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction using a semitendinosus muscle tendon. Although it is necessary to add tension to fix the tendon graft without loading excess stress on the patellofemoral joint, adjustment of the tension can be difficult. To resolve this problem, we developed an MPFL reconstruction procedure using the ToggleLoc Fixation Device (Biomet, Warsaw, IN), in which the semitendinosus muscle tendon is folded and used as a double-bundle tendon graft and 2 bone tunnels and 1 bone tunnel are made on the patellar and femoral sides, respectively. The patellar side of the tendon graft is fixed with an EndoButton (Smith & Nephew, London, England), and the femoral side is fixed with the ToggleLoc. Stepless adjustment of tension of the tendon graft is possible by reducing the size of the loop of the ToggleLoc hung onto the tendon graft. It may be useful to position the patella in the center of the femoral sulcus by confirming the patellofemoral joint fitting. Stability can be confirmed by loading lateral stress on the patella in the extended knee joint. This procedure is less invasive because opening of the lateral side of the femur is not necessary, and it may be useful for MPFL reconstruction.

Single-Incision, Single Patellar Tunnel For Double-Bundle Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction: A Technical Note.

Project description:The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the main medial stabilizer of the patella, while reconstruction of the ligament is a common surgery performed by orthopedic surgeons. Although several surgical methods have been described regarding MPFL reconstruction, the common goals of these surgeries are to imitate the anatomic features of the native MPFL. In the single-incision and single patellar tunnel and double-bundle MPFL reconstruction technique, we will present the anatomical footprint of the MPFL located in the medial aspect of the patella, which is filled with the graft. In this technique, graft fixation is performed in the femoral tunnel using only one bioabsorbable screw without the need for fixation in the patella.

Anatomical Double-Bundle Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction With Autologous Semitendinosus, a Single Patellar Tunnel Technique.

Project description:Patellofemoral instability is one of the knee problems that can be found in up to 3% of knee injuries, especially in younger aged females. Recent biomechanical studies showed that the main soft tissue stabilizer for patellofemoral stability is the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). More than 200 articles on MPFL reconstruction have been published. Some surgical techniques create multiple holes in the patellar area that may increase the risk of patellar fractures. This technique that we present here attempts to reduce the chance of patella-related complications, while maintaining stability of the reconstructed construct, reducing the use of a lengthy tendon graft within the patella and covering the footprint at the border of the patella closed to the native anatomy of the MPFL.

Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction: a technique with a "v"-shaped patellar tunnel.

Project description:Patellofemoral dislocation is a common problem affecting the young and active population. The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is torn when the patella dislocates as it acts as a checkrein to lateral displacement. This leads to patellar instability, and MPFL reconstruction is required if the dislocation recurs after a trial of rehabilitation. We describe a "V"-shaped patellar tunnel technique to reconstruct the MPFL using an autologous gracilis graft. This modification of the patellar tunnel does not breach the lateral cortex of the patella, and it allows a broader attachment of the tendon graft to the patella, which mimics the normal anatomic attachment of the MPFL to the patella.

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 With Concomitant Lateral Patellofemoral Reconstruction for Patellar Instability.

Project description:Patients with bidirectional patellar instability who are unresponsive to conservative management may benefit from a medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction and lateral patellofemoral ligament (LPFL) reconstruction. If an isolated MPFL reconstruction does not provide adequate stabilization intraoperatively, combined MPFL and LPFL reconstruction allows independent reconstruction, which can be performed with a facile, reproducible technique. The purpose of this report was to describe our technique for performing an MPFL reconstruction with a concurrent soft-tissue LPFL reconstruction combined with a distalizing tibial tubercle osteotomy to correct patella alta.

Wide Patellar Insertion Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction with Internal Bracing.

Project description:Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is a common procedure to address MPFL deficiency. Various techniques have been reported, with the best method still being pursued. Previous studies have revealed the advantage of internal bracing and possible advantage of wide patellar insertion in MPFL reconstruction. Thus, we would like to introduce a technique that combines the internal bracing and wide patellar insertion in MPFL reconstruction, in which the critical points are proper location of the patellar and femoral tunnels and proper tensioning of the augmenting sutures and the whole graft complex. Our clinical experience indicates that the proper application of this technique can lead to satisfactory clinical outcome. We consider the introduction of this technique will provide more insight to MPFL reconstruction.

Patellofemoral Joint Reconstruction for Patellar Instability: Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction, Trochleoplasty, and Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy.

Project description:Recurrent patellar instability can be very debilitating and may require surgical intervention. A thorough workup must be completed in this subset of patients. Risk factors for recurrent instability include patella alta, trochlear dysplasia, an increased tibial tubercle-trochlear groove distance, and insufficiencies in the medial retinacular structures. Necessary treatment of these risk factors, once identified, should be addressed surgically. Patellofemoral reconstruction must be individually tailored to each patient's anatomy and may necessitate medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction, tibial tubercle osteotomy, or trochleoplasty in any combination or as a standalone procedure. This article details our technique for surgical treatment of recurrent patellar instability with a medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction, an open trochleoplasty, and a tibial tubercle osteotomy for patients with severe trochlear dysplasia, an increased tibial tubercle-trochlear groove distance, or patella alta.
