改良髌骨双骨道法自体股薄肌腱重建髌骨内侧支持带治疗复发性髌骨脱位

目的探讨改良髌骨双骨道法自体股薄肌腱重建髌骨内侧支持带（medial patellofemoral ligament,MPFL）治疗复发性髌骨脱位的临床效果,同时探讨解剖高危因素对术后效果的影响。方法2007年1月-2010年2月,对36例髌骨复发性脱位（单侧31例,双侧5例）采用改良髌骨双骨道法自体股薄肌腱重建MPFL,在髌骨内上缘由后内向前外向髌骨内1／2表面平行钻2个3．5mm骨道,将股薄肌腱引过骨道,将股薄肌腱的两游离端拉入股骨内侧骨道,屈膝30。位可吸收螺钉固定。对所有患者的Beighton评分,Q角,Insall指数,滑车发育不良分级,胫骨结节一滑车沟距离（TT—TG）等进行测量。临床评分采用Kujala,Lysholm和Tegner评分,同时调查患者的满意度。结果32例对手术的效果非常满意,3例满意,1例不满意。Kujala、Lysholm、Tegner评分分别由术前（64．34-15．0）、（65．1±18．6）、（3．2±1．1）分显著提高到术后（92．4±9．2）分（t=4．657,P=0．002）,（92．0±10．1）分（t=3．936,P=0．006）和（5．2±1．0）分（t=6．633,P=0．001）。80．6％（29／36）的患者在术后6—8个月恢复到受伤前的运动水平。1例术后1年再次髌骨脱位。97．6％（40／41）的膝关节存在股骨滑车发育不良,Beighton评分（5．2±2．5）分,Insall指数为1．22±0．14,Q角（13．6±3．9）°,TT-TG值（13．7±4．4）mm,与功能评分无相关性（P〉0．05）。结论自体股薄肌腱改良髌骨双骨道法重建MPFL是一种可靠安全经济的手术方法。高危解剖因素如高位髌骨、滑车发育不良、关节松弛等情况广泛存在于髌骨复发性脱位的患者中,虽未发现其严重程度会直接影响手术效果,但当复合因素存在时,仅重建MPFL的软组织手术可能不足以完全防止髌骨脱位复发。     

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Suture Tape for Patellofemoral Joint Instability

ObjectiveTo describe a surgical technique using suture tape for reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). This technique restores the stability of the reconstructed ligament and has excellent postoperative outcomes.MethodThis is a retrospective analysis. From January 2016 to June 2018, 17 patients underwent MPFL reconstruction using high‐strength suture (FiberTape; Arthrex) augmentation, with at least 12 months of follow up. There were 11 female and 6 male patients. The mean age at the time of MPFL reconstruction was 22.1 years (range 13–34 years). Clinical outcomes included pain level, knee range of motion, passive patellar hypermobility, and maltracking at follow‐up. The lateral patellofemoral angles, congruence angles, and patellar tilt angles were measured in a skyline view by CT at 30° of knee flexion at 12 months. Functional outcomes were assessed using the Lysholm knee scoring scale, the SF‐12 score, the Tegner score, and the Crosby and Insall grading system at yearly follow‐up.ResultNo patients were lost at the last follow up. One patient had recurrence of patellar dislocation and none of the others had serious complications. The success rate of MPFL repair for preventing recurrent dislocations was 94.1% (16 of 17 knees). Fifteen knees had full range of motion of more than 130°. At follow‐up, 2 knees were judged to have mild hypermobility and none had severe hypermobility or maltracking. Using the Crosby and Insall grading system, 12 knees (70.6%) were graded as excellent, 4 knees (23.5%) as good, 1 knee (5.9%) as fair to poor, and none as worse at the last follow‐up assessment. In all patients, the Lysholm knee score (55.12 ± 13.52 vs 79.88 ± 7.50, P < 0.01), the SF‐12 score (47 ± 9.53 vs 65.24 ± 12.82, P < 0.01), and the Tegner score (2.76 ± 1.39 vs 6.53 ± 1.70, P < 0.01) had improved at their 12‐month follow up. Compared with preoperative radiological findings, there was a significant improvement in lateral patellofemoral angle (−10.24 ± 7.10 vs 6 ± 5.43, P < 0.01), patellar tilt angle (26.53 ± 7.23 vs 9.88 ± 4.24, P < 0.01), and congruence angle (29.59 ± 11.95 vs −8.65 ± 4.86, P < 0.01).ConclusionThe use of FiberTape in MPFL reconstruction can improve the stability of the knee following surgery and has good midterm clinical results and low complication rates.     

韧带张力测量在髌骨外脱位内侧髌股韧带重建术中的应用评价

目的 评价重建韧带张力的测量在髌骨外脱位内侧髌股韧带（medial patellaremoral ligament,MPFL）重建术中的应用效果。方法 前瞻性纳入我科2014年1月至2018年12月收治的髌骨外脱位病人共75例,并随机分为两组。观察组36例,利用拉力秤张力测量的方法,选取自身的胫骨结节内侧半腱肌腱,镜下辅助双股MPFL重建术进行治疗;对照组39例,术中未使用拉力秤,以手法复位髌骨的方式重建MPFL。术后采用膝关节损伤和骨关节炎评分（knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score,KOOS）、Kujala评分、髌骨适合角、髌骨倾斜角来评价临床效果。结果 随访过程中3例病人失访（观察组1例,对照组2例）,72例随访14~54个月（平均42个月）。两组病人治疗后的KOOS评分、Kujala评分、髌骨适合角、髌骨倾斜角均较术前得到改善,与术前数值比较,差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。但两组手术前后的KOOS评分、Kujala评分、髌骨适合角、髌骨倾斜角的差值比较,差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。对照组1例病人术后出现髌骨高压的症状。结论 术中采用拉力秤辅助固定韧带是简单有效的预防术后髌股关节高压症的方法。

Medial Patellofemoral Reconstruction Techniques for Patellar Instability

The medial patellofemoral complex (MPFC) is the term used to describe the primary soft tissue stabilizer of the patella, which consists of fibers that attach to the patella (medial patellofemoral ligament, or MPFL), and the quadriceps tendon (medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament, or MQTFL). Despite the variability of its attachment on the extensor mechanism, the midpoint of this complex is consistently at the junction of the medial quadriceps tendon with the articular surface of the patella, indicating that either patellar or quadriceps tendon fixation can be used for anatomic reconstruction. Multiple techniques exist to reconstruct the MPFC, including graft fixation on the patella, quadriceps tendon, or both structures. Various techniques using several graft types and fixation devices have all reported good outcomes. Regardless of the location of fixation on the extensor mechanism, elements critical to the success of the procedure include anatomic femoral tunnel placement, avoiding placing undue tension on the graft, and addressing concurrent morphological risk factors when present. This infographic reviews the anatomy and techniques for the reconstruction of the MPFC, including graft configuration, type, and fixation, while addressing common pearls and pitfalls in the surgical treatment of patellar instability.     

Total Knee Arthroplasty Combined With Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction for Osteoarthritic Knee With Preoperative Valgus Deformity and Chronic Patellar Dislocation

We report a challenging case of a 44-year-old woman who had osteoarthritis in the lateral compartment of her right knee with severe valgus deformity and chronic lateral patellar dislocation. Total knee arthroplasty was performed for the knee. However, persistent patellar dislocation remained during the surgery; and therefore, medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction was additionally performed at the time of the surgery. Stable patellar tracking was obtained after the MFPL reconstruction; and during the 2-year follow-up, her knee functioned well, and no recurrent patellar dislocation was observed. This clinical case indicates the usefulness of MPFL reconstruction for obtaining stable patellar tracking during total knee arthroplasty when a tendency for lateral patellar dislocation remains.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction: A Novel Technique Using the Patellar Ligament

In patients with chronic patellofemoral instability, more than 2 episodes of dislocation, and an anterior tuberosity trochlear groove of less than 20 mm as measured on computed tomography or nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, we have developed a technique for medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction that uses a medial strip of the patellar ligament (PL). The incision started proximally at the level of the superior margin of the patella, centrally between the patellar medial margin and the medial epicondyle. A descending incision was then made, directed toward the superomedial margin of the tibial tubercle. We performed a plane-by-plane dissection up to the peritenon of the PL. With an osteotome, we could remove a 2-cm bone fragment concerning the medial third of the distal insertion of the PL or keep the distal end free. Using a No. 11 scalpel blade, we carefully detached the PL from the patella up to the transition between the proximal third and medial third of the patella. We placed the stitches between the periosteum and the ligament using FiberWire absorbable threads (Arthrex, Naples, FL) to safely rotate the graft. After that, we dissected the medial capsule and approached the femoral medial epicondyle. Then we placed a Krackow suture in the free tendon end using absorbable threads or anchored the threads into 2 holes that were previously drilled, and we secured the end with an absorbable interference screw or anchors. The fixation should be performed with the knee at 15° to 30° of flexion. Then we sutured the distal edge of the vastus medialis muscle to the graft, which bestows a dynamic component upon the reconstruction, and we immobilized the knee with a removable brace.

Reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament for painful patellar subluxation in distal torsional malalignment: a case report

Complex two-level rotational malalignment of the lower extremity can cause maltracking of the patella with anterior knee pain. Double derotation osteotomy would correct the underlying pathology. However, it carries a high risk of complications such as nerve and vessel damage. We report a case of rotational malalignment in the femur and the tibia associated with trochlear dysplasia, which causes painful patellar instability. The patient was successfully treated with reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament and lateral release. Although the malrotation was not addressed, the position of the patella was corrected, and no dislocation occurred during a follow-up of 10 months.
