Patients were assessed postoperatively at three, six, and twelve months using measures such as the Lysholm score, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain, and goniometry for active knee extensions and flexion. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 22.0.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Results indicated superior clinical outcomes for the ORCF group at twelve months post-treatment, with notable higher Lysholm scores and lower VAS scores for pain at three-, six-, and twelve-month intervals. The ORCF group also demonstrated improved flexion and range of motion, with an average fracture healing time of 2.65 months and significantly lower complication rates, compared to the ORTF group.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The ORCF method, leveraging headless compression screws and cerclage wire fixation, emerges as a promising approach for managing minimally displaced transverse patellar fractures, potentially offering improved clinical results and patient satisfaction in comparison to the traditional ORTF method.
