Video Summary
In this video summary, Dr. Philippe Schottler provides an overview of MPFL (Medial Patellofemoral Ligament) reconstruction. He explains the anatomy of the MPFL and how it functions to stabilize the patella. He discusses the evolution of surgical techniques for MPFL reconstruction, including the use of autologous grafts and anchor systems. Dr. Schottler emphasizes the importance of proper diagnostics, including clinical examinations and radiological imaging, to determine the appropriate surgical approach. He highlights that MPFL reconstruction is most effective in patients with isolated instability between 0 and 30 degrees of flexion and warns against using it in cases of patellofemoral arthritis or dysplasia. He concludes by discussing the need for further research and more techniques to address revision cases and specific patient populations. This video was presented by Dr. Philippe Schottler.
