Management of Neglected Patellar Tendon Rupture by Peroneus Longus Autograft and Suture Anchor: A Case Report.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Patellar tendon rupture is a rare injury and is often missed in primary and secondary care centers because of non-visibility in X-rays. Neglected rupture is even rarer and gives rise to significant disability. These injuries are technically difficult to repair with invariably poor functional outcomes. This needs reconstruction with allograft or autograft with or without augmentation. We report such a case of neglected patellar tendon injury treated with peroneus longus autograft. Case Report: A 37-year-old male patient presented with limping and inability to do a full extension of the knee. There is a history of a lacerated wound over the knee following a bike accident. Reconstruction was done with peroneus longus auto graft by making a trans-osseous tunnel through the patella and tibial tuberosity in the Figure eight 8 manner and fixed by a suture anchor. Postoperatively, the patient was doing well at a 1-year follow-up. Conclusion: Good clinical outcomes can be achieved in neglected patellar tendon rupture by auto graft without augmentation.
