“…If the fracture is minimally displaced, typically nonoperative treatment is used. That protocol includes a period of protected weight-bearing to minimize stress/mechanical loading on the acetabular fracture site [18][19][20][21] . In this case report, the patient's acetabular fracture was not identified until approximately 5 months after injury.…”

Case: We present an adolescent contact-sport athlete presenting with hip pain after a traumatic in-play event. After delayed clinical improvement, a magnetic resonance arthrogram (MRA) revealed a posterior acetabular labral tear and the patient was referred for arthroscopic repair. However, subsequent critical interpretation of the MRA demonstrated a missed concomitant posterior acetabular wall fracture, which was later confirmed with computed tomography. Conclusion: Despite the low incidence of acetabular fractures in adolescents, this case report highlights the importance of maintaining clinical suspicion in young athletes after a traumatic injury, recognizing the association with labral tears, and acknowledging the limitations of certain imaging modalities.
