Traumatic Anterior Dislocation of the Knee Without Any Neurovascular Complication-Case Report

Abstract

We are reporting a case of traumatic anterior dislocation of the left knee without any neurovascular complication. To our knowledge, such complete dislocation without involvement of popliteal artery and/or peroneal nerve has not been reported before however similar cases are reported after total knee replacement with and without neurovascular compromise. This injury was recognized and treated promptly with rehabilitation commencing early, resulting in a good functional outcome. We discuss the possible injury mechanism and management of this unusual case.
