Abstract

This summary discusses the rare occurrence of non-traumatic bilateral rupture of the knee extensor apparatus. This pathology involves spontaneous rupture of the quadriceps et patellar tendons in both knees without a history of recent trauma. Non-traumatic tendon ruptures, particularly bilateral cases, are uncommon and may be associated with underlying systemic or metabolic conditions such as diabetes or renal failure, which can contribute to tendon fragility. Management typically involves surgical repair of the ruptured tendons followed by intensive rehabilitation to restore knee function and strength. Close monitoring is essential to identify potential complications and optimize long-term outcomes.
