Case: A healthy 15-year-old girl presented with osteochondral fracture at the posterior aspect of the lateral femoral condyle (LFC) associated with a right patellar dislocation after a noncontact injury. The patient remained asymptomatic 18 months after the arthroscopically assisted reduction and internal fixation of the osteochondral fracture using bioabsorbable pins and was able to eventually resume her usual activities of daily living.
Conclusions: This is the first report of an osteochondral fracture at the posterior aspect of the LFC after an acute patellar dislocation, successfully treated with arthroscopically assisted reduction and internal fixation using bioabsorbable pins. This rare injury and unique mechanism of injury have been discussed.
