Abstract:
BACKGROUND: In recent years, al kinds of absorbable internal fixation materials have been used in the clinical treatment of patel ar transverse fractures. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the repairing effect of absorbable internal fixation materials on patel ar transverse fractures. METHODS: Total y 102 cases of fresh patel ar transverse fractures were included 62 males and 40 females cases, with a mean age of (41.85±11.15) years, and according to treatment methods, they were divided into two groups: observation group (n=52) using absorbable screws for reconstruction and control group (n=50) using Kirschner wire repair. At 12 months after repair, Lysholm knee function score were measured and evaluated, and the occurrence of adverse events was recorded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The knee function score and excel ent rate of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (both P < 0.05). In the observation group, there were four cases of fracture displacement, but no skin irritation and other adverse events occurred; in the control group, there were two cases of nonunion and five cases of skin irritation or internal fixation loosening and slippage. Therefore, there was a higher incidence of adverse events in the control group compared with the observation group (P < 0.05). These experimental results show that the use of absorbable screws in the repair of patel ar transverse fracture can promote the functional recovery of the knee joint, with good biocompatibility.
