DOI: 10.1177/23259671251320964
Abstract: Background: Reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) with nonresorbable suture tape (FiberTape) could be an alternative to MPFL reconstruction (MPFLR) using an autologous tendon graft after a first-time patellar dislocation. Purpose: To investigate whether… read more here.
