A Cadaveric Study of the Sagittal Patellar Insertion of the Medial Patellofemoral Ligament in Children: Implications for Reconstruction
This research characterized MPFL insertion anatomy on the medial patella in the sagittal plane. This knowledge provides a clear target area for anatomic graft placement during MPFL reconstruction.
