Patella fracture accounts for 1% of bone injury, of which anatomical reduction is of great significance to the recovery. Tension band with cannulated screw and Kirschner wire is commonly used methods for the treatment of displaced patella fracture. However, there is still some controversy on the clinical efficacy of the two treatment methods. Objective. This study aimed at comparing the therapeutic effects of the cannulated screw and Kirschner wire tension bands on patella fracture and at providing more data basis for clinical selection of treatment methods for patella fracture. Methods. Altogether, 146 patients with displaced patella fracture admitted to our hospital from March 2016 to February 2018 were selected and divided into two groups according to the different treatment methods. Among them, 71 patients received tension band with a cannulated screw (TBWCS group) and 75 patients received tension band with Kirschner wire (TBWKW group). Two groups of patients were compared in terms of surgical treatment effect after one year of treatment, complications within six months after the operation and operation-related indexes. The pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score, knee flexion degree, Lysholm score, and Bostman score were recorded at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after operation, and the activity of daily living scale (ADL) score was evaluated at the last follow-up. Results. During the operation of patella fracture patients, the intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization time, and knee flexion loss of patients in TBWCS group were less than those in the TBWKW group (P<0.05), the starting time of postoperative functional exercise was earlier than that of patients in TBWKW group (P<0.05), and the incidence rate of secondary operation was lower than that of patients in the TBWKW group (P<0.05), but there was no statistical difference in the operation time, incision length, and postoperative fracture gap between the two groups. The results of curative effect analysis showed that the knee flexion, Lysholm score, and Bostman score of patients treated with tension band with cannulated screw were higher than those treated with Kirschner wire (P<0.05), and VAS score was lower. Tension band with cannulated screw had a better curative effect on patella fracture (P<0.05), lower complication rate (P<0.05), and higher quality of life of patients (P<0.05). Conclusion. Tension band with cannulated screw has a good curative effect on patella fracture, low incidence of complications, early start of postoperative functional exercise, and high quality of life.
