暂无{Abstract}: <B>OBJECTIVE: </B>The purpose of this study was to systematically review the evidence in the literature in order to evaluate the outcomes following medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction with allograft compared to autograft reconstruction.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>A systematic literature search was performed based on PRISMA guidelines using the EMBASE, MEDLINE, and The Cochrane Library databases. Inclusion criteria for the study was clinical studies reporting on MPFL reconstruction with allograft. Recurrence rate, complications, rate of return-to-play, and functional outcomes including the Kujala, Tegner, and visual analog scale (VAS) scores were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 8.3.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>Our review identified 12 studies with a total of 336 patient knees meeting the inclusion criteria. The majority of patients were female (61.6%), with a mean age of 22.3 years and a mean follow-up of 43.4 months. The overall rate of recurrence of lateral patellar instability was 2.7% in the allograft cohort as compared to 7.8% in the autograft cohort (p = 0.01). The mean Kujala score was 91.8%, and the mean VAS score was 1.3 at final follow-up. Additionally, 81.5% of patients were able to return to play in the studies reporting this outcome measure. The overall complication rate was 1.4%.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>The overall rate of recurrence was lower following MPFL reconstruction with allograft as compared to autograft in the treatment of lateral patellar instability. Additionally, there were excellent patient reported outcomes and a low complication rate following the use of allograft for MPFL reconstructionPurpose: The purpose of this study was to systematically review the evidence in the literature in order to evaluate the outcomes following medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction with allograft compared to autograft reconstruction.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>A systematic literature search was performed based on PRISMA guidelines using the EMBASE, MEDLINE, and The Cochrane Library databases.
