{Abstract}: In lateral patellar dislocation, injuries commonly involve the medial retinaculum and the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). Stabilizing the medial soft tissue is crucial, with options including MPFL repair, reconstruction, or medial retinacular plication. For acute cases, MPFL reconstruction may be overly invasive, leading to donor site morbidity and scarring concerns, especially in young females. The authors propose an arthroscopic-assisted medial retinacular plication technique through stab wounds for acute dislocations, offering the advantage of being less invasive with good cosmetic outcomes.
