Abstract

Injuries due to dog bites are a common occurrence and are mostly trivial. Severe dog bite injuries requiring hospitalization and complex reconstructive procedures are more common in children. We present the case of a five year old child with popliteal artery thrombosis and compound Posterior Cruciate ligament injury due to a dog bite. The child was managed by immediate thrombectomy, meticulous debridement and knee spanning External fixation followed by Skin Grafting. At one year post surgery range of motion was 10-110 degrees, with no distal neurovascular deficit and no sign of instability.
