MPFL Reconstruction Surgery for Athletes: Performance, Return to Sport, and Long-Term OutcomesMedial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) injuries commonly affect athletes involved in high-impact sports, leading to knee instability and recurrent patellar dislocations. Prompt diagnosis through physical exams and MRI is vital to minimize downtime. When conservative treatments fail, MPFL reconstruction surgery using autografts offers effective restoration of knee stability and athletic performance.…Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) injuries commonly affect athletes involved in high-impact sports, leading to knee instability and recurrent patellar dislocations. Prompt diagnosis through physical exams and MRI is vital to minimize downtime. When conservative treatments fail, MPFL reconstruction surgery using autografts offers effective restoration of knee stability and athletic performance. Postoperative rehabilitation focuses on gradual strength, balance, and sport-specific training, while addressing psychological recovery to prevent reinjury fears. Most athletes return to pre-injury levels within six to nine months, with low complication rates when following tailored rehab protocols. Ongoing preventive strategies, including strength training, proper warm-up, and technique refinement, are essential to reduce recurrence risk and prolong athletic careers. Collaboration among surgeons, physiotherapists, and coaches ensures safe, efficient recovery and optimal outcomes for athletes
