Abstract
Fractures of the intercondylar tibial spine are uncommon injuries that occur more frequently in the growing skeleton. They are easy to miss in the triage setting often being diagnosed as 'sprains' after sporting injuries. We report three cases that occurred in adolescents attending the same sporting event. We seek to highlight the importance of recognising these injuries so that the appropriate immediate treatment can be given.Entities:
