摘要
We herewith report a case of a 22-year-old man who suffered from a transverse laceration of the quadriceps muscle. The patient presented to us after 3 months of the injury with an inability to extend the knee. We undertook a surgical repair of the muscle tear using the modified Mason-Allen technique and a polypropylene mesh augmentation. To the best of our knowledge, the use of polypropylene mesh for repair augmentation of mid-substance tear of quadriceps muscle has never been described in the literature. The patient had achieved a full active knee extension at 9 months following the surgery. At 3 years of follow-up, the patient has maintained the movements and strength of the knee. He has no functional limitations and is satisfied with the outcome. Thus, the middle term results are good and the treatment is promising.
