This in combination with a rupture of the popliteal artery is extremely rare. Thus, an exact incidence is not available from the literature. Overall, these injuries are severe and often lead to chronic knee instability. We report a case of a 9\u2010year\u2010old boy who suffered a traumatic displacement of the left knee with a rupture of the popliteal artery. Prior to transfer to our department, he was treated by a saphenous vein bypass graft and by a transfixation of the knee using two oblique percutaneous pins. We performed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the knee which revealed a femoral avulsion fracture of the PCL. Other ligaments and menisci were intact. A transosseous femoral fixation using non\u2010absorbable stitches was carried out. A 1\u2010year follow\u2010up after surgery demonstrates intact peripheral perfusion and sensation, straight axes of both legs and a physiological gait. Minimal differences of the length and circumference of both legs could be measured. The posterior laxity (Lachman\u2010test) was about 5\/8\u00a0mm (right\/left knee) and 2\/5\u00a0mm (right\/left knee) in 90\u00b0 flexion. The range of motion (extension\/flexion) was 5\/0\/140\u00b0\u2013\/5\/100\u00b0 (right\u2013left knee). Intact cruciate ligaments were confirmed by MRI. Minimal experience exists in treatment of combined injuries to the PCL and the popliteal artery in children.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00167-005-0677-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,9]],"date-time":"2005-06-09T04:10:45Z","timestamp":1118290245000},"page":"335-339","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Femoral avulsion fracture of the posterior cruciate ligament in association with a rupture of the popliteal artery in a 9\u2010year\u2010old boy: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"E.","family":"Hesse","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma Surgery Hannover Medical School Carl Neuberg Strasse 1 30625 Hannover Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L.","family":"Bastian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma Surgery Hannover Medical School Carl Neuberg Strasse 1 30625 Hannover Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Zeichen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma Surgery Hannover Medical School Carl Neuberg Strasse 1 30625 Hannover Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Pertschy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic Radiology Hannover Medical School Carl Neuberg Strasse 1 30625 Hannover Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"U.","family":"Bosch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma Surgery Hannover Medical School Carl Neuberg Strasse 1 30625 Hannover Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Krettek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma Surgery Hannover Medical School Carl Neuberg Strasse 1 30625 Hannover Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_4_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2165\/00007256-199928060-00005"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/03635465980260032301"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-199309000-00014"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0749-8063(05)80067-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373-198809000-00016"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-198264090-00017"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-197961080-00008"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00167\u2010003\u20100409\u20100"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_4_10_1","first-page":"228","article-title":"Blunt popliteal artery trauma: a challenging injury","volume":"63","author":"Harrell DJ","year":"1997","journal-title":"Am Surg"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000313480106700214"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/036354658100900203"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiographics.15.3.7624562"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_4_14_1","first-page":"247","article-title":"Confirmation of the safety and accuracy of physical examination in the evaluation of knee dislocation for injury of the popliteal artery: a prospective study","volume":"52","author":"Miranda FE","year":"2002","journal-title":"J Trauma"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/036354658000800203"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-198062030-00014"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00002281\u2010200203000\u201000011"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5435\/00124635-200109000-00003"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005131\u2010200303000\u201000008"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"107","DOI":"10.1097\/00003086-197909000-00015","article-title":"Avulsion fracture of the tibial attachment of the posterior cruciate ligament.
