Meta Analysis Comparative StudySingle Versus Double Tunnel Fixation in Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction: A Meta-Analysis.
The purpose of this meta-analysis was to conduct a comparative analysis of clinical scores and complication rates among patients experiencing recurrent patellar dislocation who underwent medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction using both single and double tunnel techniques. A comprehensive search was conducted across electronic databases including PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Google Scholar to retrieve articles relevant to MPFL reconstruction utilising the tunnel technique. Subsequently, meta-analyses were undertaken to assess complication rates and changes in clinical scores before and after surgery. ⋯ In conclusion, the authors found that the clinical functional improvement and complication rates in MPFL reconstruction using the single tunnel fixation technique are comparable to those achieved with the double tunnel fixation approach. However, to further advance the understanding in this field, additional randomised controlled studies must be conducted to provide further insights. Key Words: MPFL reconstruction, Bone tunnel, Patellar dislocation, Meta-analysis.
