Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical effect of medial patellofemoral ligament(MPFL)reconstruction combined with the com-prehensive surgery of anteromedial tibial tubercle transfer and distal shift in the treatment of recurrent patellar instability.Methods The clin-ical data of 60 patients(60 affected knees)with recurrent patellar instability who were admitted to the orthopedics department of Mianyang central hospital in Sichuan Province from April 2012 to September 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.All the patients were examined with knee arthroscopy,lower extremity X-ray,CT and MRI,and they were treated with MPFL reconstruction combined with anteromedial tibial tu -bercle transfer and distal shift comprehensive surgery.All patients were followed up for at least 1 year after operation.The physical indexes, imaging examination indexes and evaluation results of knee function were analyzed before operation and at the last follow -up.Results The follow-up of 60 patients showed that the results of fear test were negative,results of patellar tilt test were symmetrical,and the Q angle re-turned to normal.The activities of flexion and extension were significantly improved,and there was no fractures or dislocation of the patella. Imaging examination showed that the patellofemoral joint was well positioned.At the last follow-up,the patellofemoral congruence angle,de-gree of patellar out-shift and lateral patellar angle of the 60 patients were significantly decreased,and the tibial tuberosity-trochlear groove dis-tance(TT-TG)was also significantly decreased,the differences were significant(P<0.05),and they basically returned to the normal range. At the last follow-up,the Lysholm score and Kujala score were significantly higher than those before operation,the differences were significant (P<0.05).Conclusion The clinical effect of MPFL reconstruction combined with anteromedial tibial tubercle transfer and distal shift com -prehensive surgery is satisfying in the treatment of recurrent patellar instability,which has great significance for relieving symptoms and resto-ring the function of the knee.
