Bilateral quadriceps tendon ruptures are rare lesions. At.raumatic forms, or those following low-energy trauma, are much rarer and occur on pre-existing lesions. We report a case of bilateral and simultaneous rupture of the quadricipital tendon in a 45-year-old hemodialysis patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism (PTH: 1642 pg /ml). He underwent surgical repair with good evolution after rehabilitation. Spontaneous and simultaneous bilateral ruptures of the quadricipital tendon are exceptional. A pathology that weakens the tendons, such as secondary hyperparathyroidism, which is common in dialysis patients, remains the most common cause.
