Abstract EN
Knee dislocation is an uncommon, potentially limb-threatening, knee injury.
Most often caused by high-velocity trauma, it can also result from low- or even ultra-low-velocity trauma.
Rapid identification of the injury, reduction, and definitive management are necessary to minimize neurovascular damage.
We present a case of rotatory anterolateral knee dislocation sustained during a twisting sports-related event.
Special emphasis is placed on diagnosing vascular injuries associated with knee dislocations.
