Strong Suspicion

Distal patellar tendon avulsions are rare injuries in healthy individuals, and to date, no case affecting skeletally mature teenagers and adolescents has been reported. In the majority of cases, distal patellar tendon avulsions are associated with severe intra-articular knee lesions, signifying a high-energy trauma. We present the case of a 15.5-year-old female who was admitted to the emergency department after a knee injury. The mechanism of injury was a combination of landing after a jump off a scooter and sudden deceleration with a fixed foot. Lateral radiographs revealed a distal patellar tendon avulsion. An MRI was conducted to accurately diagnose concomitant lesions. The MRI revealed a complete tear of the ACL, and associated bone bruises on the lateral femoral condyle, and also on the posterolateral tibial plateau. A knee joint exam under general anesthesia demonstrated good stability during valgus stress testing and only a grade 1 positive Lachman test. Therefore, we decided to only reconstruct the extensor mechanism and to abstain from a primary ACL reconstruction. The presented case and review of the literature demonstrate the clinical relevance of this atypical lesion. In fact, a distal patellar tendon avulsion after physeal fusion of the proximal tibia should raise a strong suspicion of severe associated intra-articular knee lesions and requires prompt MRI investigation. However, controversy still exists regarding the management of these injuries, in particular concerning the question of whether to address both injuries in a single stage or in 2 stages.

Tendon Avulsion

Rupture of the patellar tendon is relatively rare. We report a case of patellar tendon avulsion with a tibial tuberosity sleeve fragment in pediatric patient. In pediatric patient, diagnosis is sometimes difficult due to uncompleted ossification. In the present case, which involved the presence of a small fleck of bone from tibia, we were able to attain a diagnosis using the Koshino-Sugimoto index and MRI and easily determine the optimal treatment with the use of the suture anchor and tension band wiring method.

Tendon Avulsion

Complications involving the extensor mechanism after TKA are potentially disastrous. We are reporting a case of patellar tendon rupture from tibial tuberosity following total knee arthroplasty. We managed it by direct repair with fiberwire using Krackow suture technique without augmentation. Our long term result has been very encouraging. Our method is a safe and better method of management of patellar tendon avulsion following TKA when it happens without any tissue loss.
