Abstract: Acute patella tendon ruptures are relatively infrequent compared to quadriceps tendon ruptures. We hereby present the case of a 23-year-old male who suffered a sports injury causing a rupture of this patellar tendon. Surgical repair and the early rehabilitation allow for complete recovery of knee function and early return to pre-injury activity level in most cases.
