Abstract
Patellar tendon ruptures resulting in extensor mechanism disruption are typically treated with surgical repair. This case involved a 53-year-old man with an acute right patellar tendon rupture sustained during a basketball game. This review describes the standard transosseous primary repair using Krackow sutures with a novel box-and-1 suture augmentation technique.
