In the study of the efficacy of internal fixation with tension band of musculofascial tendon in the treatment of fracture of patella, 52 cases were reported. After a following-up of 6 months to 13 months the bone healing was observed, in 7.5 weeks in average, and the function of the knee joint had recovered to normal or almost normal. It was concluded that the treatment of fracture of patella by internal fixation with tension band from musculofascial tendon was a ideal and practicable method.
