Fractures & Trauma

Tibia Fractures

The lower leg is made up of two long bones called the tibia and fibula that extend between the knee and ankle. The tibia or shinbone is the larger of the two bones. It bears most of the body’s weight and helps form the ankle joint and knee joint.

Patella Fractures

The patella or kneecap is a small bone present in the front of the knee where the thigh bone meets the shinbone. It provides protection to the knee and attachment to muscles in the front of the thigh. An injury to the knee can result in a break or fracture of the patella.

Quadriceps Tendon Repair

Quadriceps tendon is a thick tissue located at the top of the kneecap. The quadriceps tendon works together with the quadriceps muscles to allow us to straighten our leg. The quadriceps muscles are the muscles located in front of the thigh.

Patellar Tendon Repair

Patellar tendon repair is the surgery performed to reattach the torn tendon to the kneecap and to restore normal function in the affected leg.
