Sonography of Quadriceps Tendon Ruptures
Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine · 2004-07-01 · Case report
Abstract
Quadriceps tendon rupture is an uncommon injury, which may benefit from early operative repair. However, clinical assessment is frequently inaccurate and delayed diagnosis is common. Ultrasound has been shown to be sensitive in detecting quadriceps tendon rupture. We report a case of bilateral quadriceps tendon ruptures diagnosed by ultrasound. Typical sonographic findings were illustrated.
