Abstract
|
|
|
|
Irreducible knee dislocation among acute knee dislocations is very rare. If reduction and treatment are not performed early, serious complications such as skin necrosis, vascular and nerve injury, compartment syndrome, and instability can occur. So far, treatment options, such as two-staged operation with early open reduction and delayed ligaments reconstruction or repair, one-staged arthroscopic reduction without ligaments reconstruction or repair, one-staged operation with open reduction and ligaments reconstruction have been reported for the irreducible knee dislocation. In this case, the authors have found satisfactory results following one-staged operation with open reduction and primary ligament suture after diagnosing the exact injury site using magnetic resonance imaging preoperatively.
