Case: We report a rare case of femoral-sided avulsion fracture of both the anteromedial and posterolateral bundle attachments of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). We performed an arthroscopic double-bundle pull-out repair. At the 1-year follow-up, the patient had no deformity, laxity of the knee, and no limitations when engaging in various sports activities.
Conclusion: An avulsion fracture of both the anteromedial and posterolateral bundle attachments is a rare injury. Arthroscopically assisted reduction and fixation demonstrated successful achievement of both bone union and good ACL function.

Purpose: Controversy exists regarding the optimal imaging modality (magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, stress radiographs) for identification of patients with grossly unstable thumb metacarpophalangeal (MCP) ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries or Stener lesions. We characterize a radiographic sign for this purpose. The "displaced fleck sign" is a small avulsion fracture from the ulnar proximal phalanx base that is displaced proximal to the MCP joint line.

Background: Posterior malleolus fractures may be fixed to restore syndesmosis stability. However, these fractures are often accompanied by ruptures of other ligaments that stabilize the syndesmosis. This study investigates the frequency of anterior syndesmosis injury in posterior malleolus fractures and its effect on rotational stability.

The prevalence of oromaxillofacial fracture in pediatric patients is comparatively less than in adults, which could be due to several inconclusive factors, such as infrequent exposure to high-contact sports games, rash driving of vehicles and motorbikes, alcohol consumption, and fist fights for personal reasons under the influence of alcohol. More importantly, most of the time, children are under the care of their parents till they reach an age of maturity. One more thing that everyone believes even today is the elasticity nature of their bones as well as their body weight during their growing stage.
