Abstract des Autors
Purpose: We describe an unusual mechanism of action for a proximal tibial fracture in an adolescent. Case Summary: The patient injured his leg while jumping off a spring diving board and sustained a proximal tibial physeal fracture. Discussion: The majority of these fractures occur when an athlete jumps up from a stationary platform, most commonly in basketball. Relevance: This article describes an unreported cause of a proximal physeal fracture secondary to an athlete jumping off a spring diving board. Verf.-Referat
