Abstract
Tumours and sport injuries can both affect active, young patients, and the symptoms of the two often overlap. Neglected avulsion injuries sometimes cause a mass to develop which can mimic a tumour. We discuss the diagnosis, treatment, and results following nine anterior inferior iliac spine (AISS) avulsion fractures.
