Abstract
Recurrent patellar instability continues to be a challenging problem for surgeons as more patients are being diagnosed and managed each year.
The majority of complications are secondary to technical error; thus, it is imperative that the surgeon has a thorough understanding of the anatomy and biomechanics of the medial patellofemoral ligament.
The indications and algorithm for treatment continue to evolve.
The ultimate goal for recurrent patellar instability should be to restore the native biomechanics and stability of the patellofemoral joint.
