A case of uncommon rupture of the infrapatellar ligament was reported.An adult male, aged 26 years, a first classed vollyball player was suddenly struck a shock on his right knee when jumping up. He was unable to stand up and to stretch the knee. Several days after injury he visited the clinic. Marked swelling and pain were observed at the lateral infrapatellar portion and a x-ray film showed abnormally high patella. First, marked swelling concealed the definite diagnostic signs of rupture of the infrapatellar ligament. Delayed repair was done five weeks after injury. A scar tissue between the ruptured ends was resected end-to-end anastomosis of the ligament was performed. Medial part of the ligament was reinforced with a semitendiosus tendon. Result was satisfactory.
