Introduction: Quadriceps and Achilles tendon ruptures are well-known entity following tendonitis and tendon weakening in some of the chronic and systemic underlying disease. Case Presentation: We report a very rare case with simultaneous Achilles and bilateral quadriceps tendon ruptures in a patient with chronic renal failure (CRF) in a 48-year-old man. The ruptured tendons were treated surgically with good outcome. Conclusions: Multiple tendons injury should be considered to prevent delayed diagnosis in patients with CRF who presented with tendon rupture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
