Sumario:Quadriceps tendon rupture is a devastating injury that has traditionally been repaired using bone tunnels and knot tying. Recent innovations seeking to address persistent weakness and gap formation of repairs have used suture anchors and knotless technology. Despite these innovations, the clinical outcomes of these repairs continue to be mixed. We describe a technique that leverages a pre-tied knotted high-tension suture construct to allow for a re-tensionable quadriceps repair.
