Abstract
Semimembranosus tendon avulsion fractures are an uncommon occurrence and are often associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial meniscus tears. We present the imaging features of an unusual case of semimembranosus avulsion fracture of the posteromedial tibial plateau associated with posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tear, medial meniscus tear, and capsular rupture in a 26-year-old man with a football injury.
