Abstract
Simultaneous bilateral quadriceps tendon rupture is an uncommon but disabling clinical entity that usually has an underlying cause of tendon weakening. We present a case of a 36-year-old male who presented with full-thickness tears of both quadriceps tendons following a fall on the knees and was found to have underlying calcific tendinopathy secondary to chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis. Imaging with radiographs and ultrasound scans usually suffices for the evaluation of tendon pathology in cases of clinical suspicion of quadriceps tendon rupture.
