  • Title: Stress fracture of the patella.
    Author: Jerosch JG, Castro WH, Jantea C.
    Journal: Am J Sports Med; 1989; 17(4):579-80. PubMed ID: 2782543.
    Abstract:
    Stress fractures are rarely an indication for surgical treatment. In our case we decided to operate on the patient because of distraction of the fragments. Solid bony healing took longer than in traumatic fractures, but the good functional result confirmed our regimen.
