Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the outcomes of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction using synthetic suture tape in kids with patellofemoral instability over a follow-up period from 2014 to 2022.
- It involved 22 patients, 29 knees, and saw significant improvements in functional scores, with most patients reporting high satisfaction post-surgery despite a few complications.
- The findings suggest MPFL reconstruction is effective, especially for pediatric patients with connective tissue disorders or previous unsuccessful surgeries, demonstrating good clinical outcomes and a manageable risk of complications.
