Video Summary
Dr. Julie Dodds discusses proximal patellar stabilization procedures, emphasizing the importance of anatomy, particularly the MPFL and MQTFL. Treatment options include repair (mainly acute cases), imbrication (rare), MPFL reconstruction (common technique using gracilis grafts), and MQTFL reconstruction (using quad tendon without patellar tunnels). She stresses accurate femoral attachment localization, proper graft fixation, avoiding overtightening to preserve motion, and standard rehab protocols. Outcomes show about 13% recurrence with high return-to-sport rates. Complications often reflect suboptimal results rather than failures. Dr. Dodds advocates for knowledge of anatomy and subtlety in technique, applauding collaborative advancements in patellofemoral surgery.
