Abstract:
Quadriceps tendon rupture is a relatively uncommon injury, typically occurring in middle-aged males, and is often associated with systemic comorbidities or trauma. Although primary repair techniques provide excellent outcomes when performed acutely, revision surgery presents unique challenges due to poor tissue quality and compromised vascularity. This article outlines a step-by-step technique for revision quadriceps tendon repair incorporating transosseous fixation, suture cerclage, and biologic augmentation with BioBrace.
