Video Summary
In this video, the speaker discusses the complications that can arise from MPFL surgery (patellofemoral surgery). They mention that patient redislocation, fractures, patellar bone loss, arthritis, and medial subluxation are potential complications that can occur. The speaker advises against performing an MPFL surgery if the TTTG (tibial tuberosity-trochlear groove) measurement is above 15 to 20. They also caution against overdoing a lateral release or lateral lengthening. The importance of correct graft placement, avoiding large holes in the patella, and considering osteotomies are also highlighted. The speaker provides tips and recommendations for improving surgical outcomes. Credits: This video is presented by an individual who co-founded the Patellofemoral Center at HSS (Hospital for Special Surgery). The speaker acknowledges consulting for Smith and Nephew and Varicella.
