Title: So, You’ve Mastered MPFL Reconstruction: What Else to Add, and When?
Course Description:
Surgical techniques in MPFL reconstruction for the treatment of patellar instability have become increasingly popularized. However, optimal outcomes require that concurrent factors related to morphology or alignment are addressed at the time of soft tissue reconstruction. We review the treatment algorithm for when and why to add concurrent procedures and provide pearls on how to perform them while avoiding complications. Cases demonstrating multiple concurrent factors will be presented to highlight each principle.
