Reconstruction of the patellar tendon using semitendinosus–gracilis (stg) tendon grafts with preserved distal insertions in addition to fixation with tension–reducing wire
Dr. Hari Prasath, Dr. Subramaniyan K
Abstract :
Chronic neglected patellar tendon ruptures are rare as most of the acute patellar tendon ruptures are disabling and often primarily treated (1). Usually patients present late to the hospital due to missed diagnosis, native treatment or neglect requiring acute repair to reestablish knee extensor continuity and to allow early motion. Neglected ruptures of the patellar tendon is defined as ruptures presenting after six weeks of injury which are often difficult to repair [2, 3], and various surgical techniques have been described for reconstruction using auto–grafts, allografts and synthetic materials. , we followed an improved surgical technique for reconstruction of the patellar tendon using semitendinosus–gracilis (stg) tendon grafts with preserved distal insertions in addition to fixation with tension–reducing wire
