The patellar ligament: A comprehensive review
Clinical Anatomy, 2021AbstractThe patellar ligament (PL) is an epiphyseal ligament and is part of the extensor complex of the knee. The ligament has gained attention due to its clinical relevance to autograft and tendinopathy. A variety of anatomical variations of the PL such as aplasia, numerical variations, and vascularity are being reported recently by clinicians and ...

Lesions of the patellar ligament
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1990We report 18 cases of pain and tenderness in the mid-part of the patellar ligament in athletes. The condition may be disabling, but it responds to surgery. Ultrasound and CT scans were positive in all 17 confirmed cases, but ultrasound gave a better distinction between the cysts, granulation tissue, metaplasia, mucoid degeneration and congenital ...

Partial rupture of the patellar ligament
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1992Eighty-one patients with 91 partial ruptures of the pa tellar ligament verified by ultrasonography were treated conservatively with a standardized training program based on the principles of eccentric loading. The partial ruptures were quantified by measuring the length of the hypoechoic lesion using ultrasonography in longi tudinal projection.

Patellar ligament‐bone autograft for reconstruction of a distal patellar ligament defect in a dog
Journal of Small Animal Practice, 2013A 3 · 5‐year‐old whippet was presented 4 weeks after sustaining a traumatic injury to the right stifle joint. A penetrating injury had resulted in patellar ligament (PL) rupture. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a normal appearing proximal half of thePLand absence of normal fibres within the distal half of the ligament.

Mucoid degeneration of the patellar ligament in athletes.
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1992Seven post-traumatic mucoid cysts of the patellar ligament occurred in six athletes. Non-operative treatment of two of the seven cysts was successful, as was operative resection of the remaining five cysts. The lesion, while uncommon, must be considered in the differential diagnosis for athletes who have persistent pain in the knee.

Fractures associated with patellar ligament grafts in cruciate ligament surgery
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1992We reviewed retrospectively 490 patellar ligament reconstructions for cruciate ligament injuries performed from 1980 to 1990. There were six cases of patellar splitting and three displaced patellar fractures in donor knees. The fissure fractures all occurred during the removal of the patellar bone block.

Augmentation of the patellar ligament with a bone-patellar tendon-bone inlay allograft
Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1998We report two cases of deficient patellar tendons with severe anterior knee pain and functional limitations that were augmented with a bone-patellar tendon-bone inlay allograft. There are numerous reports in the literature describing techniques of acute and chronic repairs of ruptured patellar tendons, but we describe a new technique using allograft ...

REPAIR OF A TORN PATELLAR LIGAMENT
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1932This paper is presented to describe a case of a ruptured patellar ligament and to detail its successful repair. Patellar tendons can be torn either by direct or by indirect violence. Direct violence presupposes a blow by a sharp instrument capable of severing the majority of the fibers of the tendon. Such an injury usually opens the knee joint and the

Bilateral Patellar Ligament Rupture: A Case Report
Orthopedics, 1986ABSTRACT: Patellar ligament ruptures are uncommon injuries; bilateral ruptures are rarely seen. When they do occur they are associated with chronic disease states. A case of a bilateral patellar ligament rupture secondary to trauma in a healthy man is presented. Appropriate management with aggressive surgical repair and rehabilitation are discussed.
