A Biomechanical Comparison of Patellar Fixation Techniques in Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
Suture anchor fixation at the patella-graft interface in MPFLR provides a biomechanically stronger construct with less patella violation compared with interference screws. This may make it the preferred option for MPFL graft fixation on the patella.
