“…It can result from trauma or occur spontaneously in subjects with systemic disorders like gout [1,2], rheumatoid arthritis [2], systemic lupus [3], hyperparathyroidism [4][5][6], and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Spontaneous ruptures in ESRD patients are uncommon and reports of this condition in the literature are scarce, most of them consisting of case reports [11,14].…”

“…The quadriceps, Achilles, patellar, triceps, biceps, supraspinatus, and subscapularis tendon ruptures in patients with chronic renal failure have been previously reported in the literature (9)(10)(11). Possible factors associated with tendon rupture in patients with chronic renal failure are uremic toxins, secondary amyloidosis, chronic metabolic acidosis, secondary hyperparathy roidism and hemodialysis (2,(12)(13)(14).…”
