Introduction Distal femur fractures are challenging injuries historically associated with high
rates of nonunion and varus collapse with operative management. As a result, clinical and …

Background Olecranon fracture (OF) is a common upper limb fracture, and the most
commonly used techniques are still tension band wiring (TBW) and plate fixation (PF). The …

Background To compare the efficacy and safety of K-wire tension band fixation (KTB) with
other alternative approaches (cannulated screws, cable pin, and ring pin) for treatment of …

Background Patella fractures requiring surgery are traditionally treated using metallic
implants, which are associated with high re-operation rates, mainly due to implant …

Objective The patellar inferior pole fracture is typically comminuted. Hence, achieving firm
fixation and early activity is highly challenging. In this article, we employed the method of …

Objectives The complication rate following operative treatment of patellar fractures remains
high and is associated with a poor functional outcome. The primary goal of this study was to …

Background Modified tension band fixation has become commonly used for transverse
patella fractures. The conventional stainless steel wire provides sufficient stability but may …

Purpose Traditional tension band fixation of patella fracture is associated with high
reoperation rates. The purpose of the study was to assess strength of fixation in patella …

Background The displacement and rotation of the Kirschner wire (K-wire) in the traditional
tension band wiring (TBW) led to a high rate of postoperative complications. The anti …

Background The aim of this study is to assess the causes and rates of re-operation in
olecranon fractures in adults treated with transosseous suture. Methods We prospectively …
