Özet
Objective: This study aims to describe a new technique for pericerclage application for comminuted patella fractures and to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients who underwent this technique. Methods: The clinical outcomes of 9 patients with AO/OTA C2 and C3 fractures and surgically applied percutaneous pericerclage using a drainage trocar were evaluated. Results: Three of the nine patients included in the study were female, and 6 were male. Union was achieved for all patients. The mean Böstman score was 27.8 (24-30). The excellent clinical outcome was achieved in 7 patients. Conclusion: In the surgical treatment of comminuted patella fractures, a drainage trocar can be safely used for percutaneous pericerclage, and satisfactory clinical results with stable fixation can be achieved.
