Revisiting Tension Band Principle Using Fiber Tape in Patella Fractures in Terms of Functional Outcomes, Complications, and Resurgery
Our investigation into a modified tension band technique using fiber tape sutures revealed encouraging clinical outcomes, marked by minimal complications. The adoption of fiber tape as a substitute for metal wire counterparts in patellar fracture treatment shows potential for reducing hardware related symptoms and shows lesser morbidity.
