Tibial tubercle avulsion fracture is a rare injury in adolescents; its association with a patella fracture is exceptional. This current case report describes an 10-year-old boy admitted to the department of pediatric orthopaedic surgery for a left knee trauma. X-ray showed a displaced fracture of the tibial tubercle associated with a fracture of the patella, the sciatic nerve, and the fibrous band. We performed a surgical reduction of the tibial fragment with two cancellous screws and tension band wiring of the patellar fragment.
