Combined Avulsion Fracture of the Tibial Tuberosity and Lateral Tibial Plateau in an Adolescent: Case Report
UNLABELLED Avulsion of the tibial tuberosity is uncommon. It is usually an athletic injury, accounting for less than 3% of all epiphyseal injuries. We report the case of an avulsion fracture of the tibial tuberosity with unusual articular involvement of the lateral tibial plateau treated with open reduction and internal fixation using cancellous screws. The result was excellent, with complete u...
متن کاملTibial Tuberosity Avulsion Fracture and Open Proximal Tibial Fracture in an Adult
A displaced tibial tuberosity avulsion fracture associated with an open extra-articular proximal tibial diaphyseal fracture is an uncommon fracture pattern. This case report describes the successful management of such a fracture pattern in a 45-year old male using an open reduction and lag screw fixation of the tuberosity with a minimally invasive reduction and plate fixation of the proximal ti...
متن کاملFracture of the Tibial Plateau Is Not an Avulsion Injury
We report a case of an apparent avulsion fracture of the posteromedial margin of the medial plateau of the tibia. This was associated with a tear of the medial meniscus and rupture ofthe anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). This triad has been previously reported, and the plateau fracture was related to the insertion of the semimembranosus tendon. The detailed investigation of our case and some ex...
متن کاملTibial Tubercle Avulsion Fracture in a Male Adolescent.
Tibial tuberosity fractures are rare in childhood, most frequently due to excessive quadriceps muscle contraction. On performing long jump, a 15-year-old boy sustained tibial tuberosity avulsion fracture type II according to Watson-Jones. The patient was treated operatively with fragment repositioning and screw fixation. Ten months after the injury and rehabilitation, he resumed his sports acti...
متن کاملAvulsion fracture of the proximal tibial epiphysis.
Fractures of the tibia through the proximal epiphysis are rare. This injury usually results from severe direct or indirect force about the knee, and has not been described as resulting from a patellar tendon avulsion injury. Four patients presented with five avulsion fractures of the proximal tibial epiphysis. All were older adolescent males who had been engaged in jumping sports when the injur...
