Novel screw-cable integrated system(SCIS) for minimally invasive treatment of patella transverse fractures: a finite element analysis

Abstract Background The most recommended method for treating transverse patella fractures is modified tension band wiring (MTBW). However, the optimal instrument for use with MTBW is still undetermined. Hence, we aimed to design a novel screw-cable integrated system (SCIS) and compare its biomechani...
