Excellent functional outcomes after synthetic reconstruction of an isolated chronic distal rectus femoris tendon injury in a professional athlete: a case report

INTRODUCTION Complete quadriceps tendon ruptures are rare injuries in professional athletes and occur much more frequently in patients of ages older than 40 yr. Isolated distal rectus femoris tendon injuries are even rarer with only three cases being reported in the literature. No consensus currently exists regarding management of this condition with both operative and nonoperative treatment modalities having been suggested. Informed consent was obtained from the patient for his case to be used for publication.
