Elongation and orientation pattern of the medial patellofemoral ligament during lunging

Unfavorable clinical outcomes after medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction, such as early osteoarthritis of the patellofemoral joint, were considered to be associate with tunnel malpositioning. Length change studies have found that small changes in the femoral position can cause great changes in elongation trends. Further studying the MPFL kinematics may help us to understand the consequences of tunnel malpositioning and optimize the reconstruction techniques. Fifteen healthy subjects were studied with a combined computed tomography and biplane fluoroscopic imaging technique during a lunge motion. Five femoral and three patellar attachments were used to simulate different MPFL bundles. Kinematics of MPFL was defined as elongation and orientation changes (i.e., deviation angle and elevation angle). The mean deviation angle was 28.7 degrees (95% confidence interval, 28.0 degrees-29.4 degrees) at full extension and remained nearly unchanged up to 60 degrees of flexion, and increased to 56.5 degrees (54.1 degrees-58.9 degrees) at 110 degrees. The elevation angle decreased linearly from 12.6 degrees (9.3 degrees-15.9 degrees) at full extension to -86.2 degrees (-92.7-79.7 degrees) at 110 degrees of flexion. The MPFL was most stretched anteriorly and laterally relative to femur from full extension to 30 degrees of flexion and remained near isometric beyond 30 degrees. The current study found that proximal and anterior femoral attachments caused excessive lateral stretching of the MPFL at deeper flexion angles. Such abnormal MPFL kinematics may subsequently cause overconstraint and increased cartilage pressures of the medial patellofemoral joint.Orthopaedics, Trauma Surgery and Rehabilitatio
