Abstrakt: Chronic quadriceps tendon ruptures are relatively uncommon albeit debilitating injuries to the knee extensor mechanism. Previous literature demonstrates worse reported outcomes with delayed surgical intervention, and no gold-standard technique currently exists for managing chronic quadriceps tendon ruptures. The goal of this technique is to provide orthopaedic surgeons an additional option that may provide a greater mechanical load to failure and greater allograft acceptance for cases with large tendon gapping or poor tissue quality that may not be viable to other lengthening techniques. We describe the repair of a chronic quadriceps tendon rupture using an Achilles tendon bone block allograft.
