dc.description.abstractThe quadriceps tendon (QT) has recently become an acceptable graft option for primary and revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions. It offers good biomechanical strength, a large cross-sectional area, and an appropriate length. Patients who participate in pivoting and high valgus stress activities and sports and who have a concomitant medial collateral ligament (MCL) injury are the best candidates for a QT graft. It may also be used for patients with patella baja, Osgood-Schlatter's disease sequelae, and patellar tendinitis. The surgical technique is demanding and has a learning curve, but with meticulous surgery, complications are rare. The QT is a reasonable alternative for ACL reconstruction and could be an important graft source for primary ACL reconstruction in the future.
