We describe herein a modified technique for reconstruction of chronic rupture of the quadriceps tendon in a patient with bilateral total knee replacement and distal realignment of the patella.The surgery involved the application of a Dacron graft and the 'double eights' technique.The patient achieved satisfactory results after surgery and we believe that this technique of reconstruction offers advantages over other methods.
