Bilateral congenital absence of anterior cruciate ligaments associated with the scoliosis and hip dysplasia: a case report and review of the literature
摘要篇首: Congenital absence of the cruciate ligaments is an extremely rare condition with a prevalence of 0.017 per 1000 live births.~1 Niebauer and King~2 first reported this disease in 1960, and after that, similar cases have been reported. These cases are usually associated with other deformities of the knee joint, such as the joint dislocation, absence of the tibial intercondylar eminence, deformity of the meniscus, dysplasia of the distal femur, etc.~3 However, its association with multiple congenital abnormalities in other areas of the body has been rarely reported. Here, we report a patient with congenital deficiency of bilateral anterior cruciate ligaments associated with scoliosis and hip dysplasia, together with the result of four years follow-up along with a literature review.
