In eight of these knees, ligament reconstruction was combined with tibial tubercle osteotomy. The IKDC and Insall\u2019s classification of outcome were used for the evaluation of all knees.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Cadaveric study revealed that resecting the MPTL increased the lateral translation of the patella up to subluxation at full extension. Intact MPFL avoids full dislocation. Regarding the clinical study, at a minimum 24\u2010months follow\u2010up, all patients reported to have stable patello\u2010femoral joints. There was a significant improvement of the IKDC score 54 \u00b1 2 pre\u2010operatively to 81 \u00b1 2 (Mean \u00b1 SD) at 24\u00a0months post\u2010operative (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.0003).
