[Surgical management of patellofemoral dislocation using an autologous quadriceps tendon graft for medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction. Clinical and functional outcomes in a retrospective cohort of pediatric patients].

Introduction: medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction using an autologous quadriceps tendon graft to treat patellofemoral dislocation in the pediatric population is a surgical alternative that may offer advantages compared to other types of grafts. We assessed clinical and functional outcomes, rate of return to sport, and complications in a cohort of pediatric patients.

Material And Methods: retrospective and descriptive cohort study.
