Abstract

Chronic pain from quadriceps tendon rupture (QTR) presents a significant challenge for both orthopedic surgeons and pain management physicians. Current treatment options include physical therapy and medication management. Patients with refractory pain often end up using opioids and suffer from a prolonged disability that affects the quality of their life. A peripheral nerve stimulator is a novel treatment option for QTR. It is a minimally invasive treatment option that can be used to manage refractory cases in the future. We report a case of successful management of chronic pain in a patient with bilateral QTR with a femoral peripheral nerve stimulator.
