✅ ACL Injuries: Tear and Avulsion Fractures Overview

  • Although most ACL tears involve the midsubstance of the ligament, avulsion of its tibial attachment occurs in a minority of cases and is more common in children than adults
  • Osseous avulsions from the femoral condyle are unusual.
  • It is important to distinguish ligamentous tears from avulsion fractures of the distal ligament insertion, as these may be amenable to primary surgical fixation.
