Failure of repair of the patellar tendon is uncommon. It may occur in association with chronic systemic diseases or after administration of corticosteroid and quinolones. We report the reconstruction of the patellar tendon with allograft, after failed primary repair, of a 23-year-old young with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.

We report the reconstruction of the patellar tendon with allograft, after failed primary repair, of a 23-year-old young with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.File in questo prodotto:
