چکیده
We report a new method of fixation of osteochondral fractures using tissue adhesive butyl-2-cyanoacrylate. A traumatic osteochondral fracture of the patella and the medial femoral condyle in a 29-year-old male was fixed with butyl-2-cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive. At 6 month follow-up the fractures showed complete healing, the postoperative knee score was 84 and the functional knee score 90 (Knee Society Clinical Rating System).
