ICL 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. This ICL covers when and how to add the following and avoid complications: anteromedializing osteotomy in the setting of coronal malalignment; distalizing tuberosity osteotomy in the setting of patella alta; trochleoplasty techniques in the setting of severe trochlear dysplasia; and lateral release or lengthening in the setting of lateral soft tissue contractures.
