lNTRODUCTlON

Among the tibial intercondylar eminence fractures, independent avulsion fractures with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) attachment are relatively common, and there are many reports about their favorable postoperative outcomes[1-3]. Conversely, huge avulsion fractures of the intercondylar eminence coincidently containing the attachment site of both the ACL and the PCL are extremely rare, and their reported clinical outcomes are poor[4-8]. We describe herein the rare case of a huge avulsion fracture of the intercondylar eminence of a tibia containing the attachment site of both the ACL and PCL, together with a complete tear of the medial collateral ligament and a partial tear of both the medial and lateral menisci. All of these injuries were treated surgically, and the patient's postsurgical functional outcome was excellent.

Imaging examinations

Plain radiographs of the right knee revealed a huge avulsion fracture of the intercondylar eminence of the tibia containing the attachment site of both the ACL and the PCL (Figure 1A and B). Computed tomography (CT) revealed that the fracture line reached the medial tibial plateau (Figure 1C and D).Magnetic resonance imaging also revealed a complete tear of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) and a partial tear of both medial meniscus (MM) and lateral meniscus (LM) (Figure 1E–G).

FlNAL DlAGNOSlS

The final diagnosis was a combined knee injury of the ACL and PCL avulsion fracture with MCL, MM and LM tears.

TREATMENT

Surgical procedure

The surgical treatment was performed in a single session under general anesthesia. An air tourniquet was not used. First, bone fixation was performed with the patient in a prone position (72 min). Open reduction followed by fixation with a 4.5-mm cannulated cancellous screw was performed for the PCLattached bone fragment

Burks' approach (posterior approach)[9]. The bone fragment of the medial tibial plateau was fixed with a bioabsorbable screw and pin.

Arthroscopic surgery was then performed with the patient in a supine position (83 min). Since the ACL-attached bone fragment was avulsed, it was anatomically reduced and sutured with #2 FiberWire

(Arthrex, Naples, FL, United States) and then pulled out and fixed with an end-button. The oblique tear of the LM observed in the middle body to the posterior horn was sutured with the inside-out technique(Figure 2A). In the medial compartment of the femorotibial joint, the MCL was sunk into the intraarticular space through the peripheral part of the vertical MM tear. The MCL was pulled out

a vertical incision and fixed slightly proximal to the femoral insertion of the MCL with a suture anchor. At that timepoint, the vertical MM tear was sutured under direct viewing (Figure 2B). Postoperative plain radiographs revealed satisfactory reduction and fixation (Figure 3).

Postoperative course

The physical examination at 1 year post-surgery showed that the active ROM of the knee was from 0° to 150°. The results of both the Lachman test and the posterior drawer test were negative, and the valgus stress test results at both 0° and 30° were negative. The International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC) objective-form grade was A[10], the IKDC subjective-form score was 100 points[10], and the Lysholm score for limb function was 100 points[11]. Plain CT showed complete bone union with excellent alignment (Figure 4A and B). A valgus stress radiograph denied valgus instability (Figure 4C and D). Arthroscopic observation was also performed at 1 year post-surgery together with the screwremoval surgery; the tension of the ACL was good and the sutured MM and LM were healed (Figure 5).The patient was asked whether the data and images of his case could be submitted for publication, and he provided consent.

OUTCOME AND FOLLOW-UP

The knee was immobilized with a splint for 1 wk, followed by postoperative ROM exercise with a rigid knee orthosis. The patient's lower extremity was kept non-weight-bearing for 4 wk, and thereafter partial-weight bearing was started. Full weight-bearing was permitted 8 wk after the operation.

DlSCUSSlON

Huge avulsion fractures of the intercondylar eminence coincidently containing the attachment sites of both the ACL and PCL are exceedingly rare, and the most frequent cause of this rare injury is highenergy trauma from events such as traffic accidents and falls from a height (Table 1)[4-8]. Our patient suffered high-energy trauma by falling from a 6-m height.

Cases of an open fracture of a lower leg[4] and a fracture of the ipsilateral femoral shaft[5]complicated with an avulsion fracture of the attached sites of the ACL and PCL due to high-energy trauma have been reported, but to the best of our knowledge, there is no published report in English describing an avulsion fracture with both ACL and PCL attachment combined with the LM, MM, LCL,or MCL. As mentioned above, most of the cases of such an avulsion fracture are thought to be due to high-energy trauma, and thus such avulsion fractures are suspected to be complicated with an undetected meniscus and/or collateral ligament injury, with high probability. In the reported cases without a description of a complicated meniscus and/or collateral ligament, it is possible that the assessment and treatment of the complicated meniscus and collateral ligament were insufficient and thus led to an insufficient clinical outcome of such avulsion fractures. We speculate that in the present case, the careful preoperative evaluation followed by a complete surgical repair of the LM, MM, and MCL led to the excellent clinical outcome.

Concerning the surgical procedure, anatomical reduction and rigid fixation of the bone fragment together with the ACL and PCL are essential. Arthroscopic surgery is generally performed for an ACLattached avulsion fracture[12,13], whereas both arthroscopic[14] and open[15] surgeries are performed for a PCL-attached avulsion fracture. In the present case, we performed a combined arthroscopic and open procedure; the avulsion fracture of the PCL was open-reduced and fixed with the patient in theprone position, and thereafter the avulsion fracture of the ACL was arthroscopically reduced and sutured, the LM tear was arthroscopically sutured, and the MCL and MM were open-sutured with the patient in the supine position. Compared to the earlier reports, the present procedure was extremely complex; however, the final clinical outcome was excellent with the Lysholm score of 100 and 0°–150° as the active ROM of the knee; in addition, the patient was able to sit straight. In light of these results, it is apparent that the absolute anatomical reduction and meticulous repair of the intra-articular structures led to the excellent joint function.

CONCLUSlON

We encountered an extremely rare case of a huge avulsion fracture of the intercondylar eminence of a tibia containing the attachment site of both the ACL and the PCL combined with an LM, MM, and MCL tear. All of these injuries were reduced and repaired surgically in a single session, and the final clinical outcome was excellent.

Although the patient's lower right leg showed marked swelling, there was no palsy or ischemia. The range of motion (ROM) of the right knee was 10° of overextension and 80° of limited flexion. The knee showed both anterior and posterior instability. Valgus instability in the 0° extension position was also observed, but varus instability was not observed.
