Info
Bipartite patella. The location at the superolateral aspect of the patella and lack of joint effusion help to confirm that this is not a fracture.
Case Discussion
Typical appearance of bipartite patella, a common anatomic variant. Traumatic separation of a bipartite patella is also possible and therefore comparison with previous radiographs may be helpful to check the position of the parts of the patella.
