Abstract

The case is a variant of reverse segond fracture which involves injury to the anterior tibial condylar region in addition to the usually involved posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL) injury. It further highlights the importance of recognizing a variation in the mechanism of injury required to produce such a rare fracture pattern and effective management in order to improve functional outcome.
