Semimembranosus tendon avulsion fractures are an uncommon occurrence and are often associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial meniscus tears. We present the imaging features of an unusual case of semimembranosus avulsion fracture of the posteromedial tibial plateau associated with posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tear, medial meniscus tear, and capsular rupture in a 26-year-old man with a football injury.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
