Nonhardware Subchondral Transosseous Cerclage for Displaced Comminuted Patella Fracture Repair: A Case Report.

CASE
We report a case of a 62-year-old woman who presented to our clinic with a displaced transverse comminuted patella fracture. The fracture was repaired using a subchondral transosseous suture cerclage technique which uses the dense subchondral bone to obtain an initial anatomic reduction of the articular surface, contain the comminution, and achieve union while avoiding complications associated with traditional hardware.


CONCLUSION
This case illustrates the potential for the broader implementation of subchondral transosseous cerclage suture fixation techniques for patellar fractures.
