Optimal graft anchor placement during MPFL and MQTFL reconstruction in the skeletally immature patient can be challenging because of the variability reported in previous studies of the medial patellofemoral complex origin relative to the physis. This study suggests that distal-rather than proximal-graft anchor placement might better help restore patellofemoral isometry.
