Summary

The results of surgical treatment with tension band wiring versus conservative therapy with bandages are described in a retrospective study. Operative therapy is associated with complications in 32.3% and two occasions of hospitalisation. The advantages of conservative therapy are obvious: it is easy and comfortable for the patient; there are no complications and low costs, and it is associated with a shorter temporary disablement. Therefore, conservative therapy is our standard, and surgery is performed only for Rockwood IV-VI lesions and in exceptional cases.
