The champion gymnast took to her Instagram Story on Thursday, March 6, with the heartbreaking news, posting a photo of herself in action alongside a message explaining that she would miss Louisiana State University's senior night.
"Hi friends! Unfortunately I've been dealing with an avulsion fracture of my patella and will not be able to compete on senior night," she wrote. "It absolutely breaks my heart to not get the opportunity to compete in the PMAC one last time."
According to a case study from UConn Health, a patellar fracture—or fracture of the kneecap—"may occur after direct blow to patella, indirect injury, after ACL reconstruction, after total knee prosthesis, or in the setting of pathologic fracture" and typically causes pain, swelling, and "decreased knee extension strength/tolerance."
Dunne didn't specify how she obtained the injury, nor what her treatment plan or timeline was. However, the Cleveland Clinic suggests it takes about 12 weeks for an avulsion fracture to heal completely.
