The authors report one case of isolated avulsion fracture of the tibial attachment of the posterior cruciate ligament. A 13 years old boy was admitted for right knee pain and swelling after the soccer injury on his knee. Hemarthrosis and posterior instability were present. Simple roentgenographic examination showed an isolated avulsion fracture of the tibial attachment of the posterior cruciate ligament. Open approach through the popliteal fossa was used and bony fragment was fixed into its bed using pull-out sutures. Postoperatively, a long leg cast was applied for 4 weeks. The patient was followed for 6 months. He returned to his previous activity levels. There was no residual laxity. Isolated avulsion of the posterior cruciate ligament from the tibia before the epiphyseal fusion is very rare in children. We reported one case of our experience and its result.
