    AbstractA case of a 14-year-old boy with a rare injury--an osteochondral fracture of the posterolateral tibial plateau associated with the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rapture, and Segond fracture characterized by an avulsion fracture of the lateral tibial plateau--is reported. This case was noteworthy because it involved a rare combination of ACL injuries. This injury was thought to be caused by the impaction between the posterior aspect of the lateral tibial plateau and the lateral femoral condyle during internal rotational displacement of the knee joint at the time of injury, because the osteochondral fracture of the posterolateral tibial plateau matched the site where the bone bruise was observed.
