    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To investigate effect of double button plate fixation in the treatment of inferior patella fracture METHODS: Patients with inferior pole of patella fracture were treated with double button plate fixation. The perioperative and postoperative outcomes of MPIF with those of KWIF patients with metacarpal and phalangeal fractures were included. RESULTS: The average operation and hospital stay time was 55 min and 8 days respectively. Range of motion (ROM) and knee society scores(KSS) was related to a greater increase. No patients have nonunion, infection and revision. CONCLUSION: In this study, double button plate fixation technology for the treatment of comminuted fracture of the inferior patellar pole has the advantages of simple operation, rapid recovery, early full weight bearing, better ROM and KSS, without incidence of nonunion, infection and revisions or reoperation.
