Functional Complications of Patellar Instability Treatment with Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction with the Medial Third of the Patellar Tendon with a Minimum 5-Year Follow-Up

Objective  To evaluate major complications after a minimum of 5 years of follow-up after acute or recurrent patellar dislocation treated with medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction with the medial third of the patellar tendon, with or without associated medialization of the tibial ante...

description Objective  To evaluate major complications after a minimum of 5 years of follow-up after acute or recurrent patellar dislocation treated with medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction with the medial third of the patellar tendon, with or without associated medialization of the tibial anterior tuberosity (TAT). Methods  A total of 50 patients were included, with a minimum follow-up of 5 years. The patients were evaluated regarding complications such as joint stiffness, recurrence of patellar dislocation, subjective instability reported by patients, and inability to return to the previous level of physical activity. Results  The mean follow-up was of 8.9 ± 2.6 years, with a minimum of 6 and maximum of 15 years; 64% of the patients were women, with a mean age of 27 ± 11.2 years old; 24% were submitted to TAT osteotomy for simultaneous medialization; and 46% were acute cases. Only 9 poor results (18%) were found, all resulting from recurrence of dislocation (12%) and complaint of subjective instability (6%) at between 36 and 60 months of follow-up. No other complications occurred. Among the poor results, five occurred in cases of acute dislocation, and four in recurrent cases, and only one had undergone TAT osteotomy. Conclusion  Reconstruction of the MPFL with the medial third of the patellar tendon, associated or not with TAT medialization osteotomy, is an alternative in the treatment of acute or chronic patellar instability, with a failure rate of only 18% in at least 5 years of follow-up. In addition, it is safe treatment, that does not present other complications.
