Novel technique for comminuted patellar fixation using suture tape in spiderweb configuration
This preliminary technical paper demonstrates the feasibility of using non-metallic implants for patella fracture fixation. The proposed method shows promising results, suggesting a potential shift in the approach to fracture fixation. Further research and larger cohort studies are needed to validate these findings.
