Superior dislocation of patella without patellar ligament injury is a rare clinical condition: hence often brings diagnostic dilemma for Emergency physician. Only few cases have been reported in the literature and all of them had coexistant patellofemoral joint osteoarthritis. We present such dislocation in a 34-years old rugby player after a fall without any preexisting arthrosis in the knee. This case report aims to highlight a rare condition and subtle radiological findings while assessing acute knee pain. Differences of this dislocation with vertical type of intraarticular dislocation have been discussed.
Carpometacarpal dislocations may be dorsal, volar or divergent type but most are dorsal with involvement of 4th and 5th metacarpal. We are reporting first case of ulnar type of unilateral dislocation of 5th carpometacarpal joint.
A case of intra-articular pericruciate type of meniscal cyst from anterior horn of lateral meniscus without associated meniscal tear is reported with review of literature. To our knowledge such association has not been reported earlier.
