Clinical and Radiological Predictors of Functional Outcome After Isolated Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction at Midterm Follow-up

Abstract

Overall, iMPFLR demonstrated good outcomes. Predictors influencing the functional results were identified. Less improvement in clinical outcome was reported for patients with a high preoperative patellar tilt and only a small correction in tilt and for those who had femoral tunnel malpositioning, which was correlated with tunnel widening.
