One patient was spastic and two others were athetotic. The fatigue fractures can be explained by a flexed knee gait aggravated by a contracture of the hamstring tendons. No fracture was seen in patients treated by Egger's operation. It is concluded that this procedure both prevents and cures fatigue fracture of the patella.
