The aim of this study is to analyze the clinical effectiveness of combining Kirschner wire tension band with anchor screw cross-stitch fixation.Ī retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with patellar fractures admitted to the Affiliated Central Hospital of Shenyang Medical College from September 2020 to April 2022. Herein, we report on patients with comminuted fractures of the inferior patellar pole treated at our hospital from September 2020 to April 2022. This approach provides effective physical stability for fracture healing, and the procedure is simple and easy to perform. In our clinical practice, we have found that combining anchor screw cross-stitch fixation with Kirschner wire tension band fixation significantly enhances the therapeutic effect in the treatment of comminuted fractures of the inferior patellar pole. As of now, there is no consensus on the treatment approach for comminuted fractures of the inferior patellar pole in clinical practice. With the development of medical technology, the surgical methods for fractures of the inferior patellar pole have gradually become diverse, including Kirschner wire tension band fixation, cerclage wiring, screw fixation, anchor fixation, suture fixation, and inferopolar patellar resection. The objective is to restore the integrity and stability of the knee extension mechanism, aiming to achieve anatomical reduction as much as possible, thereby facilitating early and effective rehabilitation exercises to reduce the occurrence of fracture complications. Fractures of the inferior patellar pole lead to impaired knee extension function and typically require surgical treatment. Fractures in this area are relatively uncommon, accounting for approximately 9.3% to 22.4% of all patellar fractures, and they usually occur due to direct force or are more prevalent in patients with osteoporosis. The inferior pole of the patella is primarily composed of cancellous bone without cartilaginous covering on its surface. Therefore, the integrity of the patella plays a vital role in the functionality of the knee joint. This area experiences concentrated stress and is a crucial component of the knee extension mechanism. The inferior pole of the patella serves as the attachment point of the patellar ligament, reinforcing the force arm of the quadriceps femoris muscle. The patella, the largest sesamoid bone in the human body, comprises approximately 1% of total body fractures. 2024).Ĭompeting interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist. 22-321-32-13), and the Science and Technology Fund of the Education Department of Liaoning Province (Project No. 2021-NCRC-CXJJ-PY-02), the Science and Technology Plan Project of Shenyang City (Project No. This research was supported by the Innovation Fund of the National Clinical Research Center for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine (Project No. 2021-NCRC-CXJJ-PY-02) and the Science and Technology Plan Project of Shenyang City (Project No. This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author and source are credited.ĭata Availability: All relevant data are within the paper.įunding: Funding ZC Cai This research was supported by the Innovation Fund of the National Clinical Research Center for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine (Project No. Received: JanuAccepted: ApPublished: May 2, 2024Ĭopyright: © 2024 Duan et al.
