RESUMEN
We present the case of a 24-year-old male who sustained a fall from a motorcycle resulting in a rare combination of injuries, including avulsion fractures of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and femoral lateral collateral ligament (LCL), along with an ipsilateral diaphyseal tibia fracture. This case report aims to highlight the importance of early diagnosis, appropriate management, and comprehensive rehabilitation for such complex knee injuries. We discuss the patient's presentation, radiographic findings, surgical intervention, postoperative care and long-term outcomes. To our knowledge this kind of injury has never been documented in the literature.
RESUMEN
Clavicle fractures are among the most common fractures in adults. Nevertheless, bilateral fractures are rarely reported in the literature. We present the case of a 35-year-old male patient who was admitted with a bilateral clavicle fracture following a motorcycle accident. The patient underwent open reduction and bilateral intramedullary fixation with Kirschner wires. After six months of follow-up, the functional result was satisfactory; the patient achieved full range of motion in both shoulders and was free from pain. X-rays showed a complete fusion of the fracture on both sides.
RESUMEN
Isolated distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocation is a rare injury. Reports of isolated DRUJ luxations, volar or dorsal, are often case reports and rarely a series of cases. We present a case of an isolated acute dorsal dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint in a 25-year-old man. The patient underwent closed reduction and a transcutaneous radioulnar pinning was done followed by cast immobilization in neutral rotation during 6 weeks. After six months follow -up, the functional result was satisfactory, patient experienced no pain and had no restrictions in work or sports-related activities.
