MPFL Reconstruction
A specialist surgical method called MPFL (Medial Patellofemoral Ligament) Reconstruction is used to treat kneecap instability. By replacing the stretched or injured MPFL with a new ligament, a minimally invasive procedure is performed. The purpose of this operation is to reduce pain and stop additional dislocations by stabilizing the patella’s motion.
Advanced arthroscopic techniques are used by skilled surgeons for accuracy and quicker healing. For people who experience repeated patellar dislocations or subluxations, MPFL reconstruction is essential. Patients can rebuild knee strength and stability with the help of a customized rehabilitation program, enabling them to lead active, pain-free lives once more.

MPFL Reconstruction FAQ's
The MPFL is a ligament on the medial (inner) side of the knee that helps keep the patella in its groove on the thigh bone (femur). It plays a crucial role in stabilizing the patella and preventing dislocations.
MPFL reconstruction involves creating a new ligament to replace the damaged or stretched MPFL. This is typically done using a graft from the patient’s hamstring, quadriceps tendon, or a donor graft. The graft is secured at the patella and femur to stabilize the patella.
Recovery from MPFL reconstruction is gradual. Weight-bearing and range of motion exercises typically begin soon after surgery, but it may take several months to return to full activity. Physical therapy is essential to regain strength and mobility and prevent reinjury.
