It is a soft-tissue structure on the inner (medial) side of the knee that helps guide the kneecap (patella). It is most often discussed in the context of kneecap instability and patellar dislocation. Clinicians also use the term when describing MPFL injury, assessment, or MPFL reconstruction surgery."}
