Conservative therapy of "acute" scaphoid fractures is an acceptable treatment option for pediatric patients with excellent functional results.

Anterior cruciate ligament rupture of the contralateral knee most often occurs in young active athletes within the first four years after the initial reconstruction. Its frequency is not affected by sex, side of extremity, genetic predisposition, type of sport, concomitant injuries and the choice of graft. Returning to the same or higher level of sports activities after the first reconstruction is one of the preconditions for injuring the other knee in the same way.

Resuming the same or higher level of sports activitie., after the first reconstruction is one of the preconditions for the same injury of another knee. An athlete looses more than two and a half years of competitions on average. Operations of additional meniscu ruptures do not play a crucial role in restitution of sports activities Although we achieved good operative results, only every seconc athlete with bilateral injury has returned to sports activities withou restrictions after the bilateral anterior cruciate reconstructions.

Quadriceps tendon injuries most often happen to male patients with predisposing conditions in their fifth and sixth decade of life due to trivial trauma. Patients on renal dialysis are the most vulnerable population group.

Early diagnosis and surgical treatment are an absolute imperative in management of this injury. We have not proven that a certain surgical technique has an advantage over the others. A comorbid risk factor is related to a lower Lysholm score. Despite a few cases of complications, we can conclude that the surgical treatment yields satisfactory results.
