| Abstrakt: | Introduction: Stress fractures are common in athletics and military recruits exposed to repetitive mechanical stresses. They are usually located in the weight-bearing lower limb and foot bone, usually in the metatarsals and tibial shaft. The medial femoral condyle is an unusual site for a stress fracture so reporting such a case is imperative. Case Report: We report a case of a medial femoral condyle stress fracture in a young adult without any athletic or military background, which was managed conservatively by cast application. Conclusion: Stress fractures of the medial femoral condyle are an infrequent phenomenon in individuals without any military or athletic background. Surgeons should have to be very vigilant when dealing with cases of indistinct knee pain. Competing Interests: Conflict of Interest: Nil (Copyright: © Indian Orthopaedic Research Group.) |
