[Traumatic rupture of the great adductor (adductor magnus). Apropos of a case].

The authors report a case of traumatic rupture of the tendon of the adductor magnus. It was operated on one month after the injury when it had formed a painful contractile tumour in the perineal region. The tendon was re-attached to the femur. The result was satisfactory. The authors have made a review of the literature.
