An Unusual Case of Bipartite Patella Fracture with Quadriceps Rupture

摘要

Bipartite patella fracture with quadriceps rupture is an unusual injury. It is quite often mistaken as an avulsion fracture of patella, and the X-ray of contra-lateral knee is useful for diagnosis, and appropriate treatment should be decided at the time of surgery We report a single case of this entity in which bipartite patella fracture was misdiagnosed initially as a patellar fracture.
