Common Types of Knee Injuries
- Dislocation, when the bones are forced out of their normal position or alignment.
- Patella fracture, the ends of the tibia (proximal tibia), or the femur (distal femur).
- Meniscus or ligament tears, such as to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or the medial collateral ligament (MCL). These can be caused by a sudden twisting of the leg during an auto accident, by an animal or dog attack, or by a workplace slip and fall.
