Lateral Patellar Luxation, Lateral Patellofemoral Dislocation Closed Traumatic
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to assess outcomes of MPFLR With Fascia Lata Allograft, Based on Isometry Assessment Combined With Elmslie-Trillat Tibial Tuberosity Osteotomy.
Detailed description
Medial Patellofemoral Ligament (MPFL) injury occurs in more than 95% of lateral patellar dislocations. Most of these injuries result in subsequent lateral patellar instability. Therefore, MPFL reconstruction (MPFLR) is often necessary. The aim of this study is to assess outcomes of MPFLR With Fascia Lata Allograft, Based on Isometry Assessment Combined With Elmslie-Trillat Tibial Tuberosity Osteotomy. The primary outcome consists of The International Knee Documentation Committee Questionnaire (IKDC), the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and retear rate.
Interventions
Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction (MPFLR) With Fascia Lata Allograft, Based on Isometry Assessment Combined With Elmslie-Trillat Tibial Tuberosity Osteotomy. Management of any accompanying patellofemoral lesions will be performed as well.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Lateral patella stability - apprehension test | At the 12 month of the follow-up. | Apprehension test at 30 degrees of knee flexion |
| Lateral patella stability - lateral luxation test | At the 12 month of the follow-up. | Lateral luxation test at 30 degrees of knee flexion |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The functional assessment with the The International Knee Documentation Committee Questionnaire (IKDC) | At the 12 month of the follow-up. | Min of 0 max of 87 points, higher scores mean a better outcome |
| The functional assessment with the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score | At the 12 month of the follow-up. | Min of 0 max of 100 points, higher scores mean a better outcome |
| ROM | At the 12 month of the follow-up. | Knee range of motion assessed by the means of goniometer. |
