Isolated Proximal Tibiofibular Dislocation during Soccer

الملخص EN

Proximal tibiofibular dislocations are rarely encountered in the Emergency Department (ED).

We present a case involving a man presenting to the ED with left knee pain after making a sharp left turn on the soccer field.

His physical exam was only remarkable for tenderness over the lateral fibular head.

His X-rays showed subtle abnormalities of the tibiofibular joint.

The dislocation was reduced and the patient was discharged from the ED with orthopedic follow-up.
