In HSS’s Grand Rounds, I shared the case of an adolescent athlete who needed a revision TTO a year after having a tibial tubercle osteotomy and MPFL reconstruction.
Increased Risk of Patellofemoral Arthritis: The Sagittal Tibial Tubercle-Trochlear Groove Distance

Sreetha Sidharthan M.D. and I recently published this commentary about how posterior tibial tubercle relative to the trochlear groove is associated with increased risk of patellofemoral arthritis.
Anteromedialization Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy Improves Patellar Contact Forces: A Cadaveric Model of Patellofemoral Dysplasia

In this study I created a 3D printed model to assess how forces can be improved across the front of the knee with anteromedialization tibial tubercle osteotomy.
