Abstract

Rupture of the patellar tendon is infrequent and even more infrequent re-rupture; the integrity of this tendon is necessary for an adequate knee mobility and a proper gait. The treatment is based on different surgical techniques performing a tendon repair and augmentation using autografts or allografts. The present article describes an alternative in the positioning of autografts of gracilis tendon and semitendinosus tendon, achieving a complete extensor mechanism after a 6-month follow-up, with ranges of mobility in the sagittal plane from 0 to 90°, with an adequate gait pattern without pain.
