title: Cartilaginous Avulsion of the Tibial Eminence and Anterior Cruciate Ligament in a Six-Year-Old Child.
abstract: In brief: This case report describes an avulsion fracture of the anterior cruciate ligament in a child. Because it was not initially completely reduced, it resulted in limitation of motion. The authors emphasize that even if initial x-rays appear normal, further investigation with examination under anesthesia, stress x-ray, arthrography, and arthroscopy should be considered to prevent permanent knee dysfunction.
