The Medially Pedicled IPFP flap in TKA

"In the The medially pedicled IPFP flap group, the IPFP was exposed and separated, and the lateral side was left intact and the medial side was tipped to form a complete medially tipped IPFP flap, and the IPFP flap was clipped and draped over the medial side to avoid interference of the IPFP with the operative field. After successful implantation of the prosthesis, the IPFP was fixed with in situ sutures."

The entire IPFP was resected from below the patellar tendon prior to femoral preparation.
