Background: To assess the results of patellar fracture treatment by tension band wiring.
Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was performed to evaluate clinical and radiological results of patellar fracture during past 6 years.
Results: Twenty four patients were participated in follow-up. Union was occurred in the mean time of 2.67±0.61 months. Falling down and direct trauma were the most common cause of fracture. Most common complications were thigh muscle atrophy and pin irritation. Excellent and good results in 87.5% and fair results in 12.5% of the patients were seen.
Conclusion: Fixation of patellar fractures with tension band wiring was associated with a high rate of union.
