Core Tip	We present a case of a 56-year-old female with severe systemic tophaceous gout who presented with a rupture of her revision patellar tendon reconstruction due to severe gouty infiltration. The major takeaway from this case is that with multiple failed reconstructions of the patellar tendon, both structural and biologic reinforcement were sought to provide this patient the best chance for recovery and a substantial reconstruction. We provided a robust structural construct as well as biologic reinforcement with the use of an Achilles tendon allograft with a wedge-shaped bone block and a dermal allograft incorporated into the reconstruction.
