Abstract

Extensor mechanism injuries and multiligamentous knee injuries are rare and typically are caused by high-energy injury mechanisms. We present a case of an active-duty military service member who sustained a patellar tendon rupture with concomitant multiligamentous knee injury due to a fall while bouldering. This case report is the first to highlight this significant injury due to bouldering, in addition to the surgical steps taken to get the patient fit for full military duty. These injuries often go undiagnosed and are incredibly important to recognize given the importance of prompt evaluation and ultimate surgical care in these scenarios.

伸肌机制损伤和膝关节多韧带损伤非常罕见，通常由高能量损伤机制引起。我们介绍了一例现役军人在攀登巨石时因摔倒导致髌腱断裂并同时伴有膝关节多韧带损伤的病例。本病例报告首次强调了这一因抱石运动造成的重大损伤，以及为使患者完全恢复服役所采取的手术措施。这些损伤常常得不到诊断，鉴于及时评估和最终手术治疗的重要性，认识到这一点非常重要。
