ABSTRACT
The fabella is the seasmoid bone occurring in about 10–30% of individuals and is located in the head of the lateral tendon of the Gastrocnemius muscle. Fracture of the fabella is a very rare condition. Since first reported by Jacob Sagel in 1932, only 5 cases of fabella fracture had been reported. However, there has been no bilateral case. We report a first case of bilateral fracture of the fabella with review of literature. This case was combined with rupture of anterior cruciate ligament and lateral collateral ligament on the right knee.
