2022 AOSSM Annual Meeting Recordings with CME-MPFL or TTO or Both: How to Decide?

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker provides a summary of patellofemoral instability factors and surgical correction methods. They discuss the Lyon School's principles of trochlear dysplasia, high Q vector, lateral patella tilt, and patella alta. They mention the success of surgical correction in Lyon School's cohort without an MPFL. The speaker questions if the current menu of treatment options still makes sense and highlights the need for further research on optimal surgical correction thresholds. They also discuss various tibial tubercle osteotomy techniques and considerations for medialization and distalization. The speaker emphasizes the importance of evaluating trochlear groove morphology, knee rotation, and functional engagement for decision-making. They conclude that while the menu of surgical options has evolved, tibial tubercle osteotomy remains a powerful tool in patella stabilization. The video does not mention any credits.
