摘要
One hundred and thirty six well-reserved medieval skeletons were excavated in advance of re-development in Norwich. The right patella of a 13-15 year old skeleton (SK 65) displays a 'fracture line' running through the supero-lateral pole. This represents the fusion of a secondary ossification centre, a condition known as bipartite patella. It should not be confused with other anatomical variants or with pathological processes.
