摘要：
We present a case of a neglected patellar tendon rupture, misdiagnosed as an anterior cruciate ligament tear, in a 12-year-old child with open physis without an avulsion fracture. The patient was treated with an ipsilateral hamstring tendon autograft with preserved distal insertions, a transpatellar tunnel, and a transtibial fixation. At the final follow-up, the patient had a full range of motion and a fully functional knee. The described technique results in complete muscle strength, full range of motion, and pain-free gait. It can be used in chronic patellar tendon ruptures and is a valuable addition to the therapeutic quiver for this type of injury.
