Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of a new hybrid medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction for recurrent patellar dislocation. Methods: Hybrid MPFL reconstruction by use of the semitendinous tendon was performed in 12 knees with recurrent patellar dislocation. The results were evaluated at a minimum follow-up of 3 years (mean, 4.2 years). Results: According to the grading system of Insall et al., the results were classified as excellent in 8 knees (66%), good in 2 (17%), and fair in 2 (17%), with none being classified as poor. The mean Kujala score was 56.3 points (range, 29 to 82) preoperatively and 96.0 points (range, 84 to 100) at follow-up. There were no patients with recurrent dislocation and subluxation. No knees had a positive apprehension sign, and there were no postoperative complications. Conclusions: At a midterm follow-up, hybrid MPFL reconstruction by use of the semitendinous tendon for recurrent patellar dislocation should be considered as an effective operation for cases without severe predisposing factors. Level of Evidence: Level IV, therapeutic case series, no or historical control group.
