The Boston All‐in‐One Medial Patellofemoral Complex Reconstruction: A Combined Medial Patellofemoral Ligament and Medial Quadriceps Tendon Femoral Ligament Dynamic Tensioning Technique Using Allograft

Recent anatomical understanding of the medial restraints of the patella has evolved over the last decade with a current focus on the medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament, a distinct anatomical structure to the medial patellofemoral ligament. These combine to form the medial patellofemoral complex. This technical note describes a technique to reconstruct the whole medial patellofemoral complex, replicating anatomical knowledge and allowing for dynamic graft tensioning using an allograft.

Abstract

Recent anatomical understanding of the medial restraints of the patella has evolved over the last decade with a current focus on the medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament, a distinct anatomical structure to the medial patellofemoral ligament. These combine to form the medial patellofemoral complex. This technical note describes a technique to reconstruct the whole medial patellofemoral complex, replicating anatomical knowledge and allowing for dynamic graft tensioning using an allograft.
