Abstract
The primary objective of this retrospective study is to compare patient outcomes following a combined approach (MPFL reconstruction and TTT) to outcomes reported in the literature by patients who required either only an isolated TTT procedure to treat pathologic lateral patellar instability or isolated MPFL reconstruction to treat patellar dislocation due to MPFL insufficiency. Twenty-three patients (74%) were available for follow-up and are included in our analysis. MPFL reconstruction combined with TTT has a high rate of success for patients presenting with patellar instability and extensor mechanism mal-alignment. The risk of recurrence with this technique was low (4.3%).
