Patella fracture repair:Cannulated screw tension band versus steel wire fixation / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Cannulated screw tension band combined with wire fixation is most commonly used for treatment of patel a fractures. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the clinical outcomes of combination of cannulated screw tension band and wire fixation in the treatment of patel a fractures. METHODS:A literature search method was employed to retrieve relevant articles addressing cannulated screw tension band and wire fixation of patel a fractures. In-depth analysis of literatures meeting the study criteria was carried out. Patients with patel a fractures who received cannulated screw tension band and wire fixation were fol owed up to evaluate the postoperative fracture healing, complications and functional recovery of the knee joint at the injury side. Then, the clinical efficacy of cannulated screw tension band combined with wire fixation was analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After treatment with cannulated screw tension band and wire fixation, patients with patel a fractures exhibited good fracture healing and low probability of complications, including screw or wire loosening, broken, and shedding. Functional recovery of the affected knee was up to 90%. Clinical case analysis showed that cannulated screw tension band combined with wire fixation achieved good outcomes in the treatment of patel a fracture, with over 90%functional recovery of the affected knee, which is consistent with the reported results. It indicates that the cannulated screw tension band combined with wire fixation is one of the ideal and reliable methods in use for internal fixation of patel a fractures.
