This patient has had two operations on his medial patellofemoral ligament. We can observe the different tunnels in the patella and distal femur. In this case, a MPFL reconstruction was performed without bone tunnels using the adductor magnus tendon as a post and a partial thickness medial quadriceps tendon as a graft (reproduced with permission from AOTT Journal, The Turkish Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology). MPFL: Medial patellofemoral ligament.
