Two-Tension-Band Technique in Revision Surgery for Fixation Failure of Patellar Fractures
BACKGROUND Failed patellar fracture fixation is rare, and is usually attributed to technical errors. There are no specific details available on how to address this problem. We present our two-tension-band technique for fixing patellar fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between March 2010 and March 2013, 4 men and 2 women with failed fixation patellar fractures were treated in our department. Their...
متن کاملRevisiting Tension Band Fixation for Difficult Patellar Fractures.
Patella fractures with comminution, osteoporotic bone, and/or previously failed fixation are exceedingly difficult to reduce and fix. Moreover, the risk of symptomatic constructs and patients who are poorly compliant with postoperative activity restrictions can make these complex fracture patterns an even more challenging scenario. Although there is an array of techniques described for comminut...
متن کاملPercutaneous tension band wiring for patellar fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate outcome of percutaneous tension band wiring for transverse fractures of the patella. METHODS 16 men and 7 women aged 27 to 65 (mean, 40) years underwent percutaneous tension band wiring for transverse fractures of the patella with a displacement of >3 mm. Pain, operating time, mobility, functional score, and complications were evaluated. RESULTS 20 patients underwent suc...
متن کاملComparison of a minimally invasive technique with open tension band wiring for displaced transverse patellar fractures.
BACKGROUND Open reduction and internal fixation with tension band wire is the standard treatment for displaced transverse patellar fractures. Recently, some minimally invasive techniques have been proposed as possible alternative methods. This retrospective study compared a newly reported percutaneous osteosynthesis with conventional open method for the treatment of displaced transverse patella...
متن کاملTechnique Using Isoelastic Tension Band for Treatment of Olecranon Fractures.
The isoelastic ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene tension band may be considered an alternative to stainless steel wire for tension band fixation of olecranon fractures. In this article, we present our technique using this isoelastic tension band and describe the outcomes of 7 patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation of closed, displaced olecranon fractures with minimal ...
