  • Title: [Simultaneous bilateral spontaneous rupture of the quadriceps tendon. Apropos of a case of a hemodialysis patient with hyperparathyroidism and review of the literature].

    Journal: J Med Liban; 1999; 47(5):313-6. PubMed ID: 10887537.
    Abstract:
    The bilateral simultaneous spontaneous rupture of the quadriceps tendons is a rare condition. Of the pathologies associated with this condition, in the literature, chronic renal failure with hyperparathyroidism is of special interest. In this context, the frequency of this lesion is related to the chronicity of the renal disease. We report a case treated surgically with a good functional result in a patient under dialysis with hyperparathyroidism.
