Avulsion Fractures of the Patella

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1990
Forty-seven skeletally immature patients with marginal fractures of the patella were evaluated. We showed that avulsion fractures may affect the superior, inferior, and medial margins of the patella, separating through the subchondral bone along the biomechanically susceptible margin of progressive chondroosseous transformation and expansion of the ...

Avulsion fractures of the scapula

Skeletal Radiology, 1982
Fractures of the scapula due to direct violence are relatively common. Wilber and Evans [18] reported 40 scapular fractures and reviewed the literature. All those injured had received direct trauma to the shoulder and they were able to divide their cases into two groups, based on anatomical location and functional results.

Avulsion fracture of the ischium

Injury, 1998
Abstract Avulsion of the ischial apophysis is well known to occur from puberty until final fusion at around 25 years of age. The mechanism of injury varies but is usually strenuous, resulting in a high rate of stretch or contraction of the hamstrings. Minimally displaced fractures have a good prognosis when managed non-operatively. Where the fracture

Avulsion fractures of the pelvis

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1985
Avulsion fractures of the pelvic apophyses are seen infrequently but they show a consistent pattern in mechanism, patient's age, symptoms, physical findings, and roentgenographic appearance. Some disagree ment exists in the literature concerning the treatment of these fractures.

AVULSION FRACTURES OF THE CALCANEUS

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1969
1. The literature on fractures of the postero-superior aspect of the calcaneus is reviewed. 2. The mechanical distinction between "beak" fractures and avulsion fractures is questioned, and the dangers of a purely radiological diagnosis are stressed. 3. When a complete avulsion is suspected on clinical grounds, open reduction should be done.

Avulsion Fractures of the Tibial Tubercle

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1971
Seven cases of avulsion fracture of the tibial tubercle are presented. Six of the cases were treated with open reduction and internal fixation. Accurate reduction, adequate fixation, and rehabilitation appear to insure an excellent prognosis.
