Osgood–Schlatter disease and tibial stress fracture
Diagnosis almost certain
Updates to Study Attributes
Findings
was changed:
CT confirms plain film findings of:
Fragmentation
-
fragmentation of the left tibial tuberosity associated with mild soft tissue swelling
.A horizontal -
horizontal (stress) fracture line
(stress fracture)in the proximal tibial metaphyses associated with periosteal reaction.
Updates to Study Attributes
Findings
was changed:
Fragmentation of the left tibial tuberosity associated with mild soft tissue swelling.
A horizontal fracture line (stress fracture) is seen in the proximal tibial metaphyses associated with subtle periosteal reaction, most consistent with a stress fracture.
Updates to Case Attributes
Body
was changed:
The patient gave history of playing football and usually works in a restaurant.
On examination, the patient demonstrated classical clinical findings including localized tenderness and swelling over the left tibial tuberosity, classic clinical findings for Osgood-Schlatter disease. The condition commonly affects growing adolescents and is seen most frequently in boys from age 10-15 1.
