Reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament with nonresorbable suture tape normalizes patellar maltracking independent of patella-side fixation technique

Purpose Patellar maltracking caused by a rupture of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) can be improved by MPFL reconstruction (MPFL-R) with a tendon graft. Nonresorbable suture tape (FiberTape ® , FT) is possibly becoming an option to tendon grafts for MPFL-R. Patella-side fixation of FT can...
