Tendino-Muscular Injuries of the Lower Limb
摘要
Tendino-muscular injuries of the lower limb include thigh injuries (hamstrings, rectus femoris), knee tendons injuries (patellar tendon, quadriceps tendon), and leg injuries (tennis leg, calcaneal tendon). The diagnosis can be easily made if a thorough clinical examination is conducted. Ultrasonography and MRI are not mandatory to diagnose patellar, quadriceps, and calcaneal tendons ruptures. These lesions commonly require surgical management.
