Abstract

Reverse Segond fracture is originally described as an indirect radiographic clue for a speciŞc injurycomplex of the knee joint that includes posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) rupture and medial meniscaltear. Herein, we describe a case with reverse Segond fracture associated with PCL avulsion fractureinstead of PCL rupture. According to current literature review, reverse Segond fracture is not onlyassociated with PCL and medial meniscal injuries, but also frequently associated with anterior cruciateligament (ACL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries. Furthermore, medial meniscus and PCLmay remain intact.© 2016 Turkish Association of Orthopaedics and Traumatology. Publishing services by Elsevier B.V.
