Spontaneous bilateral patellar tendon rupture: a case report and review of the literature.

Biagio Moretti1, Angela Notarnicola, Lorenzo Moretti, Raffaele Garofalo, Vittorio Patella.   

Abstract

Bilateral rupture of the patellar tendon is a very rare injury. It occurs in association with chronic systemic diseases or corticosteroid medications. We report a case of a 13-year-old child with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome presenting a bilateral patellar tendon disruption of proximal insertion that occurred with a trivial trauma. Surgical management consisting in tendon repair with a suture anchor technique protected temporarily with a cerclage wiring gives a good outcome.
