An experience of treatment of close patellar fractures with tension band wiring
2015
Patellar fractures accounts for approximately 1% of all fractures. Prevalence rate is high within the age group of 20 to 50 years and males are twice more commonly affected than females. Transverse fractures are the most common accounting for 50–80% of the patellar fractures whereas comminuted fractures account for 30–35% and the vertical ones for 12–17%.1 The purpose of this study was to find out the results of operative treatment of transverse fractures of patella with tension band wiring.
