“…Blood‐induced joint disease (BIJD) may follow acute joint injury [1] and is a key feature of hemophilia, with intra‐articular bleeding (hemarthrosis) accounting for more than 90% of all serious bleeding events in patients with severe hemophilia [baseline factor (F)VII or FIX activity < 1%] [2]. Over time, recurrent bleeding into the same joint (a target joint) results in progressive damage and the development of hemophilic arthropathy.…”

“…On the left side of our case, there was hemarthrosis but we couldnot find any accompanying lesion in radiographic and MRI assessments. It is believed that under 14 years of age, arthroscopy or arthrotomy is only indicated if therapeutic repair is expected to be achieved in hemarthrosis [29]. Arthroscopic evaluation is required particularly in cases of prolonged knee complaints suspected of having an intraarticular cause [13].…”

Patellar tendon rupture in children is very rare. When it occurs, patellar tendon is usually ruptured either from the upper end as a sleeve fracture of the patella or from lower end as an avulsion fracture of the tibial tuberosity. In this report, we present the case of an otherwise healthy 9-years-old boy who had subsequent bilateral patellar tendon ruptures through the midparts, which has not been published previously in the literature. Treatment was performed with primary end-to-end repair, reinforcement with cerclage wires and fresh-frozen achilles tendon augmentation for both sides.

“…Thus, MRI is useful for diagnosing acute injuries. It can also be used to help on the diagnosis of patellar ligament ruptures and fractures in avulsion [4].…”

Abstract:Articular cartilage flap tear of patella is a rare injury that occurs in children. Diagnosis is difficult both clinically and radiologically. Apart from knee swelling and retro-patellar tenderness, there is no other clinical finding. We report a case of 16 year old boy who suffered from patella cartilage flap tear without visible bony fragments. Mini-open reduction, microdrilling, sealing of margins with fibrin glue and double breasting of medial patellar retinaculum was performed. Early weight bearing was achieved together with a satisfactory range of knee motion. An awareness of cartilage flap tear, together with its characteristic clinical and radiological features and proper treatment is necessary to avoid misdiagnosis and treatment delay.
