Combined Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction and Tibial Tubercle Transfer Results at a Follow-Up of 2 years.

There is limited data on the effectiveness of combined medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction and tibial tubercle transfer (TTT) in patients with patella instability. The aim of our study was to analyze the functional outcome in patients treated with MPFL reconstruction and TTT. Between July 2008 and April 2013, 18 patients (21 knees) underwent combined MPFL reconstruction and TTT; 15 patients (16 knees) with a mean age of 24 years (16-41) had a mean follow-up of 30 months (26-55).
