| Popis: |
Isolated distal rectus femoris avulsions from the common quadriceps tendon are rare and may be missed due to the integrity of the remaining extensor mechanism. In healthy, active patients, surgical repair is recommended due to the potential for persistent pain, cramping, and weakness. In the case of isolated distal rectus femoris avulsions, however, there are important surgical considerations and differences when compared with the treatment of complete quadriceps tendon ruptures. This Technical Note describes an open repair of an isolated distal rectus femoris rupture with reinsertion into the common quadriceps tendon. |
