Right leg. For medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction, a gracilis allograft is reinforced on each free end with No. 2-0 FiberWire. It is first placed in the patella (A) and then shuttled down to the femur with a preplaced passing suture (B, the gracilis allograft is deep to the skin and its position is marked with orange lines). A passing suture is loaded onto the eyelet of the Beath pin, and the graft is placed into the femur for final fixation (not shown).
