Abstract: Segond fracture is a rare lesion in adolescents, resulting from rotational forces in the knee. It is considered highly suggestive of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) lesion in the adult population. There are few cases of Segond fractures in adolescent in literature. We present a case of a Segond fracture with parcial ACL lesion, in an adolescent.
