#backtosports
Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is a surgical procedure to stabilize the kneecap. It's crucial for athletes aiming to return to sports after patellar instability or dislocation. The surgery involves reconstructing the MPFL using a graft from the patient's hamstring or other tissue. Post-surgery, a comprehensive rehabilitation program is essential, focusing on strengthening muscles around the knee and improving flexibility. Gradual return to sports activities typically begins around six months post-operation, but the timeline varies depending on individual factors and the specific sport. Close collaboration between the patient, surgeon, and physical therapist is vital for a successful return to sports.
