Tibial Eminence Fractures: A Review and Algorithm for Treatment Background Fractures of the tibial eminence, first described by Poncet in 1875,1 are bony avulsions of the ACL from its insertion on the intercondylar eminence of the tibia (Figure 1). Tibial eminence fractures are relatively rare with an incidence of approximately 3 per 100,000
1 maj 2020 · Tibial spine/eminence fractures are uncommon fractures, usually seen in patients with open physes, and are considered as an equivalent to an ACL tear in adults. The aim of treatment is reduction of the fracture, restoring the ACL length for appropriate healing and avoiding complications.
