NCT06590402
Anterior Femoral and Adductor Canal Nerve Blocks in Peds Knees
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to compare anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block (AFCN) to adductor canal block ACB) for pediatric patients undergoing either anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). The aims of this trial are: * To measure postoperative functional outcomes in patients who received AFCNB vs. ACB. * To calculate postoperative opioid requirements in pediatric knee surgeries that received AFCNB vs. ACB. * To calculate pain intensity levels at rest and with ambulation in patients who received AFCNB vs. ACB. * To quantify sensory deficits in patients who received AFCNB vs. ACB. * To assess patient-reported outcome measures (e.g., pain expectation scale, pain management satisfaction, PROMIS Pediatric Short Form v1.0 - Physical Activity, PROMIS Scale v1.2 - Global Health) in patients 8-18 years of age who received AFCNB vs. ACB. Subjects undergoing ACL procedures will be compared between those who received the adductor canal block to those who received the anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block. The researchers will also compare individuals who underwent MPFL procedures and received an anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block with those who received the adductor canal block. Participants will: * Be randomized to receive either the AFCNB or ACB in addition to standard of care analgesia. * Maintain a patient diary to document daily pain meds/pain scores * Complete follow up surveys/questionnaires via telephone and during their office visits with surgeons.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction in Children - a 2-8 Years Follow-up Study
The purpose of this project is to investigate the treatment outcome after MPFL reconstruction in children as a treatment for chronic patellar instability, where the superficial part of the quadriceps tendon is fixed to the femur with anchors. The outcome will be compared with a healthy cohort matched on age and gender.

SHould You TransFer the Tubercle?
The aim of this study is to investigate the role of tibial tubercle osteotomy (TTO) on the subjective and objective outcomes following medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFL-R) in patients with an increased tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) distance with or without patella alta. This Pilot RCT will assess the feasibility of conducting this study for: 1. The ability to recruit study patients 2. Adherence to the study protocol 3. Completion rates of patient follow-up at a minimum of 12 months post-operative
