Thin Flap Trochleoplasty With Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction for Recurrent Patellofemoral Instability With High-Grade Trochlear Dysplasia: A Series of 63 Consecutive Cases
Thin flap trochleoplasty combined with MPFL reconstruction in patients with recurrent LPI and high-grade trochlear dysplasia resulted in low redislocation and reoperation rates at a mean of 33 months. Disease-specific QOL scores were statistically significantly improved from preoperatively to postoperatively.
