📌 Transverse component of the MPFL

 

  • MPFL is generally described as a horizontally oriented, ribbonlike ligament that spans from the medial patella (proximal two-thirds) to the adjacent medial femur (most commonly near the physeal scar, at a sulcus between the medial femoral epicondyle and the adductor tubercle)

Radiographics. 2023 Jun;43(6):e220177

 

  • The femoral attachment of the tMPFL was assessed immediately below the level of the adductor tubercle (AT) and just above the superior attachment of the sMCL as described by LaPrade
  • very thin and difficult to visualize even in the uninjured state, the readers characterized this femoral attachment as “no edema” or “edema” rather than utilize a grading system.
