An avulsion fracture of the anterolateral tibial epiphysis or Tillaux fracture is commonly seen in adolescents, reportedfirst by Paul Jules Tillaux in 1892. Adolescent Tillaux fracture occurs during the period when the lateral physis isstill open and the anterior-inferior tibiofibular ligament is stronger than the physis, so rarely occurs in adults. Anavulsion fracture of the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament, Volkmann fracture, occurs counterpart of Tillauxfracture. In this study, a tennis player injured during sliding and diagnosed as the rare simultaneous Tillaux-Chaputfracture and Volkmann fracture, is reported with the mechanism of injury, clinical importance of syndesmosis, sprain,and fracture of the ankle joint.
