Sex-Based Differences in Outcomes After MPFL Reconstruction

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video summarizes a study on the outcomes of MPFL reconstruction for treating patella instability, specifically looking at differences between male and female patients. A retrospective review of 131 patients who underwent MPFL reconstruction was conducted, and patients were contacted for outcome scores and information on return to play. The results showed that there were no significant differences in overall outcomes, satisfaction, or recurrent instability between male and female patients. However, male patients had a higher rate of return to sport and lower BAS scores during sport activities. Female patients were more willing to undergo the procedure again. The study had limitations and further research is needed. No credits were mentioned in the video.
