We treated one case of parellar ligament rupture with STATAK soft tissue attachment device.
The patient, a 50-year-old man fell from a height of 4 to 5m and injured his left knee joint. A rupture of the patellar ligament was diagnosed and five days later we operated on him, suturing the patellar ligament using STATAK. Three months after surgery, the patient had a good range of motion and is now able to work well without any complaint.
The operation using STATAK was a good method because it enabled us to easily suture soft tissue such as a ligamentand tend on at the bone in a narrow operating field in a short time.
