Patellar tendon-bearing (PTB) casts were devised by Sarmiento to immobilize fractures of the tibial shaft and at the same time allow the knee to bend. This type of cast must be applied with care over minimal padding and is applied in segments. The patellar tendon attaches the bottom of the kneecap (patella) to the top of the shinbone (tibia). It is actually a ligament that connects to two different bones, the patella and the tibia. The patella is attached to the quadriceps muscles by the quadriceps tendon.
