Pelvic apophyseal avulsion fractures are uncommon injuries that typically occur in adolescents during sporting activities. Iliac crest (IC) apophyseal injuries represent a small percentage avulsion fracture around the pelvis with a reported incidence rate of 5%. We present a rare case of an adolescent boy who sustained a combined anterior superior iliac spine/iliac crest apophyseal avulsion fracture while playing football. With painful limited hip range of movement and inability to weight-bear, plain film and computed tomography scan illustrated a displaced fracture which was managed conservatively with an excellent clinical and radiological outcome. A review of apophyseal fractures around the pelvis, including incidence, mechanism of injury and treatment options regarding surgical versus conservative treatment, are discussed.
