Abstract
Introduction. Knee extensor apparatus tears are uncommon conditions, affecting middle aged men more than women. Quadriceps tendon ruptures are usually described as an acute consequence of a trauma that could be characterized by a direct or indirect mechanism. Surgical intervention is often required, and several repair techniques have been described. However, the current literature does not focus on the rehabilitation after quadriceps tendon tears.
Conclusion. So, the aim of the current study is to find and describe the rehabilitation programs that could be used as a gold standard following surgical repair of the extensor apparatus.
