Comparative study of twin-perforated orthopedic pin with metal cable versus ao tension band wiring in patellar fracture management
Both treatment modalities-perforated orthopedic bone pins with metal wire and AO Kirschner wire tension bands-were effective in managing large fragment patella fractures. However, the former treatment modality demonstrated superior overall effectiveness, reduced complication rates, and improved stability of fixation, making it a preferable choice for broader clinical adoption.
