The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of the combination of MPFL reconstruction with vastus medialis advancement.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 69 patients with chronic patellar dislocation between July 2004 and October 2008: twenty eight cases with isolated MPFL reconstruction (group Ⅰ), forty one cases with the combination of MPFL reconstruction with vastus medialis advancement (group C). All patients had CT scans available for review with knee flexion at 30 degree, on which the congruence angle, patellar tilt angle and patellar lateral shift were measured. Physical apprehension tests were examined and the redislocation was recorded. In addition, knee function was evaluated using the Kujala score and subjective questionnaires.Results Patients were followed up for a mean of 42 months (12-65 months) without a recurrent dislocation reported.Postoperatively, all indexes on CT scan were within the normal range without a statistical difference between the two groups. Results from the apprehension test showed eight patients in group Ⅰ and three in group Chad patellar lateral shift exceeding 1.5 cm with a hard end point (P 〈0.05). The Kujala score improved significantly from 51.3±4.5 to 79.9±6.2 in group Ⅰ and from 53.7±5.2 to 83.9±6.5 in group C (P 〉0.05). However, the subjective questionnaire revealed a significant difference (P 〈0.05), including 12 excellent, seven good and nine fair in group Ⅰ and 30 excellent, six good and five fair in group C.Conclusion The combination of MPFL reconstruction with vastus medialis advancement is better than isolated reconstruction to improve the subjective effects and decrease the patellar instability rate for chronic patellar dislocation.展开更多

The purpose of this study was to report a novel suture-tie technique of patellar side fixation in medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction for recurrent patellar dislocation, and to evaluate the intermediate-term results. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the results of 22 MPFL reconstructions in 21 patients (6 male and 15 female) with a suture-tie technique performed by a single surgeon between March 2004 and July 2009. All patients had been diagnosed with recurrent patellar dislocation. Outcomes were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively by physical and radiographic examination as well as with Kujala and Lysholm scores. Results At the mean follow-up month 37.5 (range: 24-56 months), there was no graft failure. Primary healing was achieved in all cases. At the final follow-up, the mean Kujala score improved from 53.9 (range: 46-62 points) to 84.1 (range: 78-90 points) postoperatively (P 〈0.05), and the mean Lysholm score improved from 47.2 points (range: 37-57 points) to 82.8 points (range: 76-89 points) postoperatively (P 〈0.05). To date, no patients have reported redislocation or subluxation; however, there is one patient with a positive apprehension test. Conclusion A suture-tie technique in medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction can restore patella stability without significant complication.展开更多
