These include: stress fracture of the 5 th metatarsal; Jones fracture; avulsion fracture of the proximal 5 th metatarsal; os vesalianum pedis; os peroneum; normal apophysis of the proximal 5 th metatarsal ; The biomechanics of the fractures differ as do their natural This typically involves separation of the tibial attachment of the ACL to variable degrees.

They should not be confused with fatigue fractures which are due to abnormal stresses on normal bone, or with pathological fractures, the result of diseased, weakened bone due to focal pathology such as Looser zones are also a type of insufficiency fracture.

Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) avulsion fractures are a type of avulsion fracture of the knee that represent the most common isolated PCL lesion. Jefferson fracture is the eponymous name given to a burst fracture of the atlas. Management depends not only on the type of fracture but also importantly on the functional status and living situation of the patient. Skeletal traction may not be required if the fracture pattern is stable and the fracture is outside the weight bearing zone. The Lisfranc joint articulates the tarsus with the metatarsal bases, whereby the first three metatarsals articulate respectively with the three cuneiforms, and the 4 th and 5 th metatarsals with the cuboid.. Usually, this kind of fracture occurs as the result of a fall on an outstretched arm and is often associated with a distal radius fracture. It is also known as backfire fracture or lorry driver fracture 1. Management depends not only on the type of fracture but also importantly on the functional status and living situation of the patient. The Lisfranc joint articulates the tarsus with the metatarsal bases, whereby the first three metatarsals articulate respectively with the three cuneiforms, and the 4 th and 5 th metatarsals with the cuboid.. They are particularly common in patients with osteoporosis, and as such, they are most frequently seen in elderly women.The relationship between Colles fractures and osteoporosis is strong enough that when an older male patient Jefferson fracture is the eponymous name given to a burst fracture of the atlas. Fusion of the apophysis to the metatarsal base usually occurs within the following 2-4 years 3,4. Non-operative management 6 may be indicated in the setting of minimally displaced fracture. type I: avulsion of anterior glenoid margin; type II: transverse or oblique fracture through glenoid fossa exiting inferiorly; type III: oblique fracture through glenoid fossa exiting superiorly and associated with acromioclavicular joint injury; type IV: transverse fracture exiting through the medial scapular border On the frontal knee radiograph, it may scapular fracture; clavicle fracture; distal radial fracture (especially Colles fracture) Treatment and prognosis.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) avulsion fracture or tibial eminence avulsion fracture is a type of avulsion fracture of the knee. Some advocate the reduction of a bowing fracture where angulation exceeds 20 degrees. The proximal 5 th metatarsal is the site of a number of fractures and variants which mimic fractures. Dorsal avulsion fracture. Traditionally this avulsion fracture has been ascribed to the insertion of peroneus brevis and is caused by forcible inversion of the foot in plantar flexion, as may occur while stepping on a curb or climbing steps. may miss up to 50% of rib fractures even with dedicated oblique rib projections 1; Ultrasound Case Discussion. Mechanism. It assesses the pattern of fractures, involvement of the radioulnar joint and presence of a distal ulnar fracture.. Epidemiology. Segond fracture is an avulsion fracture of the knee that involves the lateral aspect of the tibial plateau and is very frequently (~75% of cases) associated with disruption of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The mechanism of injury is variable, and can occur both during flexion or extension, and with or without compression 5. Radiographic features. Traction (either skin or skeletal traction) is usually a temporary solution when surgery is required. This case illustrates the difference in the appearance of an avulsion fracture and an apophysis at the base of the 5th metatarsal, as both are present simultaneously in this 10 year old patient. The apophysis of the proximal 5 th metatarsal (plural apophyses) lies laterally and is oriented longitudinally parallel to the shaft.. Apophysis of the fifth metatarsal base appears on plain radiographs at age 12 years for boys and 10 years for girls. Fracture of the coronoid process is thought to result from elbow hyperextension with either avulsion of the brachialis tendon insertion or shearing off by the trochlea 1.. On the frontal knee radiograph, it may These include: stress fracture of the 5 th metatarsal; Jones fracture; avulsion fracture of the proximal 5 th metatarsal; os vesalianum pedis; os peroneum; normal apophysis of the proximal 5 th metatarsal ; The biomechanics of the fractures differ as do their natural intra-articular glenoid fracture. Fractures in these regions can be classified as: intertrochanteric fracture; pertrochanteric: intertrochanteric, involving both trochanters; subtrochanteric fracture; greater trochanteric avulsion fracture Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) avulsion fracture or tibial eminence avulsion fracture is a type of avulsion fracture of the knee. An elongated lateral tubercle of the posterior process of the talus is referred to as a Stieda process, so occasionally these fractures are described as Stieda process fractures.. A Cedell fracture is a fracture of the medial tubercle of the posterior process. Epidemiology. It can occur in a variety of settings, including: trauma; osteoporosis It should be noted that cartilaginous injuries cannot be detected radiologically and that imaging of simple nasal bone fractures often adds little to patient management. A Shepherd fracture refers to a fracture of the lateral tubercle of the posterior process. Segond fracture is an avulsion fracture of the knee that involves the lateral aspect of the tibial plateau and is very frequently (~75% of cases) associated with disruption of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).
