Relatou-se a ocorrência de fratura patelar associada à ruptura do tendão patelar em um cão sem raça definida, macho, atendido em um hospital veterinário escola. A técnica utilizada foi a combinação de fixação óssea com fio de Kirschner e aplicação de banda de tensão, recomendada em fraturas transversais da patela. Para reparar a lesão do tendão patelar, realizou-se a sutura tipo Kessler modificada com fio de náilon 0,80mm. No retorno do paciente, 150 dias após o procedimento cirúrgico, havia processo cicatricial ósseo avançado da patela. Concluiu-se que as medidas adotadas para reparação da lesão foram eficazes.
