Patellar Avulsion Fracture

Abstract

We report on the case of a 52-year-old male who sustained a transverse patellar fracture after tripping on uneven pavement. These fractures can be easy to miss on anteroposterior views, highlighting the importance of multiple radiographic views of the knee. Examination of the knee is also important, as initial clinical appearance can be benign. These fractures are most often seen in adolescents, which makes the current case somewhat unusual.
