Clinical and Second-look Arthroscopic Results for Derotational Distal Femoral Osteotomy With Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction for Recurrent Patellar Dislocation With Increased Femoral Anteversion: A Series of 102 Cases With a Minimum Clinical Follow-up of 2 Years.

Background: Derotational distal femoral osteotomy (DDFO) has been used to treat patients with recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD) with increased femoral anteversion. However, no study has reported second-look arthroscopic findings in the patellofemoral joint after DDFO.

Purpose: To report clinical and second-look arthroscopic outcomes for DDFO with combined medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFL-R) in treating RPD with increased femoral anteversion.
