Abstract
Since biomechanical studies have shown that the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the main restraint against lateral patella displacement, reconstruction of the MPFL has become an accepted surgical technique to restore patellofemoral stability. Recently, various procedures have been described that address reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral complex. We present a technique, where the MPFL is reconstructed anatomically to restore physiological kinematics and stability, using a free gracilis tendon autograft.
