Biomechanical Evaluation of Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Grafts Fixed at Nonanatomic Femoral Insertion Points: MPFL Reconstruction And Femoral Tunnel Location
An understanding of the effects that femoral tunnel malpositioning has on graft isometry is crucial to minimizing instability or overconstraint, which leads to anterior knee pain, increased patellofemoral contact pressures, or graft failure.
