Excerpt

In their study, Drs. Hohn and Pandya explored the use of allograft tissue for medial patella-femoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction in a cohort of 25 pediatric and adolescent patients. Eight percent developed recurrent instability at an average of 2 years after surgery. Despite being a retrospective study without a control group, the authors provide an important contribution to what we know about patellofemoral instability surgery, as posing this question in a purely pediatric population is novel, and lays the groundwork for future critical investigation. …
