✅Intercondylar tibial eminence fracture.
- Intercondylar tibial eminence fractures stand out as a prevalent type of knee injury among children, most commonly observed between the ages of 8 and 14.
- These fractures exhibit a range of presentations, from nondisplaced to displaced and from comminuted to non-comminuted forms.
- Adults, in particular, might experience fractures extending to the posterior portion of the intercondylar eminence.
- Additionally, there's a notable risk of associated injuries within the knee joint in adult cases, affecting the menisci, capsule, collateral ligaments, or articular cartilage.
- MRI plays a pivotal role in surgical preparation, extending beyond the fixation of the tibial eminence fracture. It enables surgeons to meticulously plan the repair of associated meniscal and ligament tears and osteochondral lesions. One of MRI's critical advantages is its ability to detect soft tissue structures' entrapment beneath the fracture fragment, which could hinder successful closed reduction.
