Biomechanical comparison of three tension band wiring techniques for transverse fracture of patella: Kirschner wires, cannulated screws, and ring pins
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare biomechanical characteristics of tension band wiring using Kirschner wires (TBWKW), cannulated screws (TBWCS), and ring pins (TBWRP) for transverse fracture of the patella. Methods: A total of 48 polyurethane synthetic patellae were biomechanically te...
