An Observational Study on the Modified Tension Band Wiring Technique for the Management of Patients with Patella Fracture
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Objectives: Our study was to evaluate the clinical and functional outcome of patients with patella fracture by the use of modified tension band wiring technique. Methodology: A total of 20 patients with patella fracture were taken. A detail history, examination and relevant investigation were done to all patients. Modified tension band wiring procedure was performed for the management of patients with patella fracture. Results: Data was analyzed by using simple statistical methods with the help of MS-Office software. Conclusions: Middle age group patients were more prone to patella fracture. Common mode of patella fracture was accidental fall on the same plane. Gold standard technique for the management of the transverse fractures of patella was modified tension band wiring. Early mobilization of joint after the procedure was most effective for achievement of good functional outcome.
