While the bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft has been considered the gold standard, the quadriceps tendon autograft has gained popularity because of its similarly low failure rate and decreased donor-site morbidity.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Indications:<\/jats:title>\n We present a case of an active 34-year-old woman with a left knee ACL tear. Using a quadriceps tendon autograft can be indicated when the patient is >5 feet tall and a substantial graft can be expected after harvest.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Technique Description:<\/jats:title>\n We present a reproducible, minimally invasive technique of harvesting a quadriceps tendon autograft using the QuadPro Tendon Harvester. We also demonstrate an effective method to close the donor site endoscopically using a suture passer.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n Using this technique, our clinical results align with the current literature, with low retear rates and a high return-to-sport rate.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Discussion\/Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n We present a reliable, minimally invasive technique to harvest the quadriceps tendon for ACLR. We discuss the technical pearls we have learned while performing this technique.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Patient Consent Disclosure Statement:<\/jats:title>\n The author(s) attests that consent has been obtained from any patient(s) appearing in this publication.
