Percutaneous Tension Band Wiring for Patellar Fractures [PDF]
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

FiberWire tension band for patellar fractures [PDF]
Symptomatic hardware represents the most frequent complication reported following surgical treatment of patellar fracture. For this reason, some authors suggested using nonabsorbable sutures to fix the fracture with various techniques. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiological results of patients treated following a modified ...

Clinical application of Kirschner wires combined with 5-Ethibond fixation for patella fractures
BackgroundPatella fractures that require surgery are conventionally treated using Kirschner wires (K-wires) and stainless steel wires. In recent years, the nonabsorbable polyester has been reported to have excellent outcomes clinically.

Comparison of the Therapeutic Effects of Tension Band with Cannulated Screw and Tension Band with Kirschner Wire on Patella Fracture [PDF]
Background. Patella fracture accounts for 1% of bone injury, of which anatomical reduction is of great significance to the recovery. Tension band with cannulated screw and Kirschner wire is commonly used methods for the treatment of displaced patella fracture.

Comparison of Tension in Thera-Band and Cando Tubing [PDF]
The Thera-Band or Cando brands of tubing are widely used in physical therapy for resistive exercise training. In the clinic, exercise intensity is typically prescribed empirically using color-coded tubing. A precise quantitative prediction of tension resulting from a given length of the tubing is thereby not possible unless the mechanical properties of
