Abstract EN
Atraumatic avulsion of the tibial attachment of patellar tendon in adults is a very rare injury with only few published case reports.
Here we are sharing the successful management and follow-up of a similar case with a different suture material for repair of the tendon, the FiberWire.
We believe that the management we are discussing allows for early return to activity with good functional outcome.
