Comparison of two different fixation methods of transverse fractures of patella
Abstract
37 cases of transverse patellar fractures are evaluated all of which were operated in the department of arthopaedics and traumatology in the Medical Faculty of Ankara University, between the years of 1987 and 1989.
In this study we compared the results of two different surgical metods, wire serclage and modified AO anterior tension band, used for treatment of transverse patellar fractures and tried to under-stand which one of two gives more satisfactory results. While modified AO anterior tensin band was performed in 20 of 37 cases (54%), the remaining cases, 17 out of 37 (46%), were treated by the former. By averall evaluation it was observed that all fractures were united. Although all results were usually satisfactory, considening the subgequent early mobilization and ease of application of postoperative rehabilitation programme we think that AO anterior tension band is more satisfactory
