Abstract
A patellar fracture is a fracture of the kneecap. The patella is a shield that plays a vital function in the biomechanics of the knee joint. Traumatic knee injuries produced by direct trauma or quick quadriceps contraction with the knee bent can result in the loss of the extensor mechanism. A 69-year-old female patient presented with pain in her right knee following a slip at her home, which resulted in an injury to her knee. Subsequently, a radiological investigation suggests a patellar fracture. The purpose of this case report is to investigate the rehabilitation techniques and concrete the result. This report emphasizes the value of a comprehensive rehabilitation program designed to assist people with this type of fracture pattern in reaching their peak operational capacity. The patient underwent a comprehensive rehabilitation regimen that included cryotherapy, range of motion exercises, strengthening exercises, gait training, balance and proprioception training. The functional outcomes were assessed using a visual analogue scale, goniometry, manual muscle testing, Berg balance scale and lower extremity functional scale. The patient exhibited significant improvement and a positive response to the therapeutic techniques and outcome assessments. This underscores the necessity for a well-rounded treatment approach to manage patellar fractures and optimize patient outcomes effectively.
