Abstract
- A 48-year-old male patient presented with inner skin retraction after a sports accident involving the knee. In a multi-ligament injury it must be assumed that knee dislocation has occurred. Inner skin retraction after knee distortion can result from an intra-articular dislocation of the ruptured medial collateral ligament. Prompt reduction and exclusion of concomitant neurovascular injuries is thus obligatory. After surgical reconstruction of the medial collateral ligament, instability was no longer apparent 3 months postoperatively.<br /> (© 2023.
