Published results showed de-rotational osteotomy with medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction was associated with better outcomes vs. tibial tubercle transfer with MPFL reconstruction for patellar instability and torsion deformity.
Researchers performed a retrospective study of data from 36 patients with recurrent patellar instability and torsion deformity who underwent surgery. Mean follow-up was 30 months. Among the cohort, 18 patients underwent double-level knee de-rotational osteotomy combined with MPFL reconstruction and 18 patients underwent tibial tubercle transfer combined with
