We herewith report a case of a 22-year-old man who suffered from a transverse laceration of the quadriceps muscle. The patient presented to us after 3 months of the injury with an inability to extend the knee. We undertook a surgical repair of the muscle tear using the modified Mason-Allen technique and a polypropylene mesh augmentation. To the best of our knowledge, the use of polypropylene mesh for repair augmentation of mid-substance tear of quadriceps muscle has never been described in the literature. The patient had achieved a full active knee extension at 9 months following the surgery. At 3 years of follow-up, the patient has maintained the movements and strength of the knee. He has no functional limitations and is satisfied with the outcome. Thus, the middle term results are good and the treatment is promising.
我们在此报告一例22岁男性患者，其股四头肌遭受横向撕裂伤。该患者在受伤3个月后前来就诊，膝关节无法伸直。我们采用改良的梅森 - 艾伦技术和聚丙烯网片增强术对肌肉撕裂进行了手术修复。据我们所知，文献中从未描述过使用聚丙烯网片来增强股四头肌中部实质撕裂的修复。患者在手术后9个月实现了膝关节完全主动伸直。在3年的随访中，患者保持了膝关节的活动和力量。他没有功能限制，对治疗结果满意。因此，中期结果良好，该治疗方法前景乐观。
