We reported end-results of 19 cases (13 males and 6 females) with patellar fracture, who entered our clinic. These cases were 17 to 78 years old, and followed for 1 years and 8 months to 7 years and 10 months (mean, 4 years and 6 months). They were evaluated for the range of motion of the knee joint, Pain, limping, muscle atrophy of quadriceps and grade of satisfaction. The clinical results were excellent in 11 cases, good in 5, fair in 3 and poor in none. Their main complaint was fatigue of knee, and those patients had muscle atrophy of quadriceps. Comminuted fracture and the step-off of articular surface after treatment contributed to poor results.
