AOSSM 2022 Annual Meeting Recordings - no CME-MPFL or TTO or Both: How to Decide?

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses patellofemoral instability and surgical correction methods. The Lyon School principles are mentioned, including trochlea dysplasia, high Q vector, lateral patella tilt, and patella alta as factors in instability. The Lyon method corrected each factor individually and achieved good results with 1% recurrence. However, the speaker questions if the Lyon method is still the best approach. They discuss different surgical options, such as tibial tubercle osteotomy, anterior medialization, and distalization, explaining when and why each may be used. The speaker emphasizes the importance of considering multiple factors and measurements when making surgical decisions. They also highlight the need to address hyperextension and functional engagement of the patella.
