Six cases of patella fractures are reported. Three horses presented an avulsion fracture of the medial patellar angle. For a precise diagnosis of this fracture a radiographic skyline view was indispensable; lateral views were not diagnostic. One of these horses recovered after three months' rest but radiographically the fracture remained visible. One horse with a comminuted fracture recovered after five months' rest. A case with a contaminated longitudinal patella fracture was destroyed. The sixth horse had a chip fracture of the dorsomedial part of the patella. The outcome of this case is unknown.
报告了6例髌骨骨折病例。3匹马出现了髌骨内侧角撕脱骨折。对于这种骨折的精确诊断，放射学的髌股关节轴位视图必不可少；侧位视图无法做出诊断。其中一匹马休息3个月后康复，但放射学检查显示骨折仍可见。一匹粉碎性骨折的马休息5个月后康复。一例伴有污染的髌骨纵行骨折的马被安乐死。第六匹马髌骨背内侧部分有碎片骨折。该病例的结果未知。
