Quadriceps tendon (QT) rupture is a rare clinical condition often caused by direct trauma in healthy individuals. Although several repair techniques for QT rupture (QTR) have been proposed, there is no consensus on the best repair technique. We report on a 55-year-old man who suffered a right QTR caused by a fall down stairs. Reconstruction of the QT was performed using a suspensory fixation device with doubled hamstring autograft and Internal Brace. At 6 months follow-up, the patient maintained excellent function. This technique may be an effective method of repairing ruptured QT.
