Özet

Abstract The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) avulsion fracture from its tibial insertion is a very rare condition in children. An isolated avulsion fracture of PCL in a child and its repair by open reduction and internal fixation with a screw is reported. Introduction The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) avulsion fracture from its tibial insertion is a rare condition in children. Very few cases in children were reported in the literature [4–6]. We report on one patient with an isolated avulsion fracture of PCL from its tibial insertion, which was repaired by open reduction and internal fixation with a screw, and his 7 year follow-up until his proximal tibial physis was closed.
