Abstract

Congenital dislocation of the knee ranges from hyperextension of the knee to complete translation of the femur on the tibia. Treatment is usually started in very early infancy. In this report, a 16-year-old girl presented with a grade III untreated congenital dislocation of the knee. She received surgical treatment at this late age, and managed to stand upright and walk.
