Introduction: The anatomical dual bundle medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction technique is one of the surgical techniques used to treat lateral patellar instability. This commonly involves the creation of two patella bone tunnels through which the limbs of the grafts are inserted. The surgical risks include patellar fracture and penetration of patellofemoral articular surface.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Zhi-Hong Chew"

  • - Zhi-Hong Chew's research primarily focuses on surgical techniques related to orthopedic procedures, particularly concerning the reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) to address lateral patellar instability.
  • - His study titled "A proposed safety angle for dual bundle MPFL reconstruction" employs observational magnetic resonance imaging to evaluate potential risks associated with surgical methods, such as patellar fractures and the danger of graft penetration into the articular surface.
  • - The findings from this research aim to enhance the safety and effectiveness of dual bundle MPFL surgeries by proposing new insights into optimal surgical angles and techniques for minimizing complications.
