The role of medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction in management of recurrent patellar dislocation: A Systematic Review of literature

Mohamed Ahmed Ahmed Mostafa;

Abstract


The patella is positioned within a soft-tissue sleeve that extends from the anterior iliac spines of the pelvis and proximal femur to the tibial tubercle.
Over the last 30° of knee extension, the patella lies outside the bony limits of the femoral trochlea, becoming more dependent on soft-tissue constraints.
Acute patellar dislocation is primarily an injury of active young patients of both sexes, with a higher recurrence rate in female patients. The overall recurrence rate after primary patellar dislocation approaches
