We have experienced 7 cases of resurfacing prosthesis in comminuted patellar fracture in 5 patients, The follow up time was from 1 year and 6 months to 3 years and 6 months. The dome-shaped plastic patellar prosthesis was used after fracture healing. Each case was evaluated by Levitt’s method of evaluation and we compared with patellectomy in “End results of patellectomy” reported by West, F. E. in 1962 in quadriceps power, range of motion, appearance and pain on the knee. The results were as follows: 1. By Levitt’s method of evaluation, 6 cases were satisfactory, but 1 case was unsatisfactory. 2. The resurfacing prosthesis was better than patellectomy in quadriceps power, range of motion and appearance, but it was a little more painful.
