Osteochondrosis of the capitellum (i.e., Panner disease) most often affects children younger than 10 years, and more than 90% are boys.33 It is more common in athletes that have repetitive valgus or axial stresses on the elbow, such as baseball and gymnastics, respectively.33 Presentation can vary with lateral elbow pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion. Examples include: Jefferson fracture: ring fracture of C1; hangman fracture: bilateral pedicle or pars fracture of C2; dens fracture; flexion teardrop fracture: unstable flexion fracture; extension teardrop fracture: This typically involves the separation of the posterior tibial insertion of the PCL to variable degrees. Apophysitis and osteochondrosis are common causes of pain in growing bones but have differing etiologies and required management. The information and materials contained on this website are not intended to constitute a comprehensive guide concerning all aspects of the therapy, product or treatment described on the website. This occurs as a result of a violent contraction of the quadriceps muscles, most often as a result of a high-power jump. Pain over affected apophysis (seven sites in pelvis), Normal or widened apophysis compared with contralateral side, Patients with persistent pain despite conservative management, Insidious onset of pain over base of fifth metatarsal head, Normal or widened apophysis of the proximal metatarsal, Rest, stiff-soled shoe for protected weight-bearing, Patients with acute avulsions or continued symptoms despite rest, Pain at inferior patellar pole with activity and kneeling, Soft tissue swelling and calcification of inferior pole of patella, Activity modification; short course of acetaminophen or NSAIDs, Patients with a mature skeleton who have persistent symptoms, Medial epicondyle apophysitis (i.e., thrower's elbow), Localized pain over medial epicondyle with throwing, May show fragmentation or widening of medial epicondyle, Throwing cessation; acetaminophen or NSAIDs as needed, Pain at anterior tibial tubercle with activity and kneeling, Soft tissue swelling and fragmentation of tibial tubercle, Activity modification; acetaminophen or NSAIDs, Posterior heel pain with activity and shoe wear, Plain radiography results are usually normal, Activity and shoe modifications; heel cups; calf stretches; acetaminophen or NSAIDs, Sclerosis, flattening and fragmentation of metatarsal head, Activity modification; metatarsal pads; well-padded shoes; limited NSAIDs for pain, Patients with metatarsophalangeal joint arthritis and loose joint fragments, Sclerosis, flattening, and fragmentation of navicular bone, Cast immobilization for up to four to six weeks, Patients with recent trauma, illness, or elevated inflammatory markers, Pain in hip, limping child, possible referred knee pain, Sclerosis, flattening and fragmentation of the femoral head, No weight-bearing activities (e.g., sports, dance) until reossification, Patients with a confirmed or suspected diagnosis, Flattening and fragmentation of humeral capitellum. Spinal fractures are usually the result of significant trauma to a normally formed skeleton or the result of trauma to a weakened spinal column. Terminology. Freiberg disease is an idiopathic avascular necrosis of the second digit of the metatarsal head, but it can affect the lesser toes as well.27 It occurs in females more often than males in a 5:1 ratio with dominant foot involvement only 36% of the time.28 The etiology is attributed to microtrauma, impaired vascularity, and systemic disorders.28 Progressive pain localized to the metatarsal head that worsens with walking should raise concern for this disease.27 Initial imaging should include a weight-bearing foot radiography series with findings showing deformation, sclerosis, or flattening of the metatarsal head.27 Radiographic evidence may be delayed three to six weeks from symptom onset, so repeat imaging may be necessary.27 MRI can detect the disease in its earliest stages.27 Initial management includes NSAIDs and protected weight-bearing with a stiff-soled shoe or walking boot. Pathology. A tibial eminence fracture, also known as a tibia spine fracture, is an intra-articular fracture of the bony attachment of the ACL on the tibia that is most commonly seen in children from age 8 to 14 years during athletic activity. 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. Tillaux avulsion fracture: is a rare avulsion fracture at the ankle. very rarely, surgery only in extreme cases and only once growth has ended. Causes of Osgood-Schlatter syndrome Some of the causes of Osgood-Schlatter syndrome may include: 1. Osgood-Schlatter disease, osteotomies) and a different technique may be required when these are present 4,5. Flexion teardrop fracture. Practical points. fracture through the physis Copyright 2022 American Academy of Family Physicians. Thrower's elbow (i.e., Little Leaguer's elbow) is a common overuse disorder in throwing athletes, especially in those who play baseball (20% to 40% of school-aged pitchers).17 It is a traction injury at the location of the medial epicondyle physeal plate.17 Risk factors include high pitch counts per game, pitching on multiple teams, coach-driven incentives to pitch harder, radar gun usage to measure speed, and not taking enough time off from the sport during the year.18 Major League Baseball and USA Baseball provide Pitch Smart guidelines that support at least a four-month rest from competitive pitching per year for prevention of this disorder, as well as avoiding playing both catcher and pitcher on the same team.19 Examination findings include tenderness with palpation on the medial epicondyle or resisted flexion/pronation with valgus stress or the milking maneuver18 (Figure 5; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwigwaZxBXEamp;&t=10s). Avulsion fractures of the knee: imaging findings and clinical significance. Open book pelvic injuries are most often the result of high-energy trauma and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality due to associated vascular injuries.. {"url":"/signup-modal-props.json?lang=us\u0026email="}, Gaillard F, Weerakkody Y, Weerakkody Y, et al. 1. 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. Rehabilitation programs for throwers such as Advanced Thrower's Ten can also be considered (http://www.kevinwilk.com/assets/advancedthrowers10-7-22-16.pdf).20 Because of high recurrence rates, avoidance of common throwing positions such as pitching and catching should be considered for up to one year or until after fusion of the apophysis.18 Immobilization and surgery are rarely required and are indicated only for refractory cases or for patients with significant avulsion fractures.8,21, Osgood-Schlatter Disease. It is for this reason that the 5 th metatarsal base must be included in the lateral ankle projection of an ankle series, especially when performed for an On MRI, different thresholds are used due to intermodality differences in measurement technique (e.g. Due to the aforementioned characteristics, the fracture typically resembles: Salter-Harris 3 fracture on AP Salter-Harris 2 fracture on lateral Small dislocations and the vertical fracture itself are frequently overlooked, and CT is advised if there is concern. 3. In reality, the majority of fractures that involve the physis have at least a small fragment of metaphysis associated with them and are therefore type II injuries. Check for errors and try again. Radiopaedia.org, the wiki-based collaborative Radiology resource orbital blow-out fracture; frontal process of the maxilla; Nasal septal hematoma should also be actively assessed. Articular branches of femoral, obturator, common fibular, tibial, and saphenous nerves constitute the nerve supply to the tibiofemoral joint 1. Measurement The Insall-Salvati ratio was initially determined on a 30 flexed lateral knee x-ray and was later applied to sagittal MRI. Shabshin N, Schweitzer M, Morrison W, Parker L. MRI Criteria for Patella Alta and Baja. 2005;13(1):8-11. Treatment of Osgood-Schlatter disease should include relative rest and quadriceps and hamstring stretching and strengthening. Solarolu I, Kaptanolu E, Okutan O et-al. ADVERTISEMENT: Radiopaedia is free thanks to our supporters and advertisers. Related pathology. Treatment is closed reduction and casting or open reduction and fixation depending on the degree of displacement and whether it can be reduced. Terminology. Assess all soft tissue structures for any associated or incidental soft tissue signs. Classically, these fractures are extra-articular transverse fractures and can be thought of as a reverse Colles fracture.. As clay shovelers lift the shovel upwards to toss the clay from deep ditches, the clay tends to stick to the shovel. Tibial tuberosity avulsion fractures are uncommon. Salter-Harris type I fractures describe a fracture that is completely contained within the physis. Rarely, a torus fracture may refer to the fracture of an oral torus, and there is potential for the two terms to be confused 10. The reason is due to the stickiness of clay. The body repairs the fractures by laying down extra bone tissue. fracture may arise as proximally as the level of fibular neck and not visualized on ankle films, requiring knee or full-length tibia-fibula radiographs (Maisonneuve fracture) unstable: usually requires ORIF; Weber C fractures can be further subclassified as 6. It is unusual for pain to persist after fusion of the apophysis.16. Open book pelvic injuries are most often the result of high-energy trauma and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality due to associated vascular injuries.. Barton fractures extend through the dorsal aspect to the articular surface but not to the volar aspect. patella tendon: inferior pole of patella to tibial tuberosity; patella tendon length = patella length 20%. ACL ganglion cyst; ACL mucoid degeneration; anterior tibial translocation sign; arcuate sign; avulsion fractures of the knee; contrecoup injury of the knee; jumper's knee; meniscal cyst Having three parts, this is a more unstable fracture and may be associated with ligamentous injury. A person with amyloidosis produces aggregates of insoluble protein that cannot be eliminated from the body. The most well-known form of osteochondrosis is Legg-Calv-Perthes disease. Unlike apophysitis, the etiology of osteochondrosis is unknown. Apophysitis results from a traction injury to the cartilage and bony attachment of tendons in children and adolescents. Larsen-Johansson disease is most common in athletic children and adolescents between the ages of 10 and 12.15 Tenderness with palpatation is most acute at the lower pole of the patella.13 Radiography can show an abnormal calcification of ossification centers, whereas ultrasonography may show further fragmentation of the inferior patella16 (Figure 4A). Causes of Osgood-Schlatter syndrome Some of the causes of Osgood-Schlatter syndrome may include: 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. There are two classification systems 5,6. Upon identifying an abnormality, do not cease the review, put it to the side and ensure to complete the checklist. These are located anterior, lateral, medial, and posterior to the tibiofemoral joint, and may communicate or non-communicate with the joint. The body repairs the fractures by laying down extra bone tissue. Promoting engagement in a variety of sports or cross-training activities may be beneficial.10, Hip Apophysitis.

Open book pelvic injuries result from an anteroposterior compression injury to the pelvis and result in a combination of ligamentous rupture and/or fractures to both the anterior and There are two classification systems 5,6. The fracture commonly results from an abduction-external rotation mechanism. Flexion teardrop fractures represent a fracture pattern occurring in severe axial/flexion injury of the cervical spine. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) avulsion fracture or tibial eminence avulsion fracture is a type of avulsion fracture of the knee. Gottsegen CJ, Eyer BA, White EA et-al. Acute, severe sternal pain that is worse with respiration with localized tenderness. A person viewing it online may make one printout of the material and may use that printout only for his or her personal, non-commercial reference. Strictly speaking, the fracture is misnamed and should more correctly be called "hangee" fracture. Tillaux avulsion fracture: is a rare avulsion fracture at the ankle. Dorsal avulsion fractures account for about 95% all triquetral fractures, most of the remainder are body fractures 4. The Insall-Salvati ratio or index is the ratio of the patella tendon length to the length of the patellaand is used to determine patellar height. Multiple isolated spinous process fracture (Clay-shoveler's fracture) of cervical spine: a case report. With this mechanism, the anterior tibiofibular ligament avulses the anterolateral corner of the distal tibial epiphysis 3. It is the avulsion fracture of the bony protuberance (tubercle) present at the lower end of shin bone (tibia) due to the pull of the ligament running between the two shin bones (the anteroinferior tibiofibular ligament). The topics covered include, The tibiofemoral joint is a modified hinge synovial joint between the distal femur and the proximal tibia. Search dates: March to June 2018, and February 2019. Strictly speaking, the fracture is misnamed and should more correctly be called "hangee" fracture. Knee radiographsare common and often a quick and easy diagnostic exam in the emergency setting. Alexander Meininger. Copyright 2019 by the American Academy of Family Physicians. 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. The search included meta-analyses, systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, clinical trials, guidelines, and diagnostic studies. diving impact, deceleration during motor vehicle collision). In addition to reporting the presence of the fracture a number of features should be sought and in many instances commented upon as relevant negatives: Odontoid process fracture, also known as a peg or dens fracture, occurs where there is a fracture through the odontoid process of C2. radial head dislocation. Affected boys are often aged about 13 to 14 years, while affected girls are often aged 10 to11 years. radial head dislocation. Osgood-Schlatter disease is a traction injury of the insertion of the patellar tendon to the tibial tubercle. It is also known as backfire fracture or lorry driver fracture 1. Due to the aforementioned characteristics, the fracture typically resembles: Salter-Harris 3 fracture on AP Salter-Harris 2 fracture on lateral Small dislocations and the vertical fracture itself are frequently overlooked, and CT is advised if there is concern. With this mechanism, the anterior tibiofibular ligament avulses the anterolateral corner of the distal tibial epiphysis 3. Gholve P A et al.

Youth sports participation carries an inherent risk of injury, including overuse injuries. The mechanism of injury is variable, and can occur both during flexion or extension, and with or without compression 5. The joint capsule consists of a thin fibrous sheath, which attaches at the distal femur and joins at the proximal tibia, enclosing the synovial fluid1. Choosing a search strategy and utilizing it consistently is a helpful method to overcome common errorsseen in diagnostic radiology. Clay-shoveler fracture. In some cases, there may be dislocation of the paired bone, e.g. Larsen-Johansson disease (i.e., patellar apophysitis) is a traction injury of the inferior pole of the patella. radius, and this is usually diaphyseal (either greenstick or complete). It is affected by the presence of tibial tuberosity abnormalities (e.g. Therefore, it is similar to a Colles fracture.

Running sports can affect the hips, knees, and ankles, whereas overhead sports can affect the shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Most often it is an overuse injury in growing children, especially those with tight or inflexible muscle tendon units. These diseases are rare, and the etiology of the disruption is unknown. The "teardrop"fracture appearance is non-specific. Radiography can show navicular flattening, sclerosis, and fragmentation.29,30 Treatment options include rest, ice, and immobilization in a walking cast for four to six weeks.29,30 Generally, it resolves in one to three years.30, Legg-Calv-Perthes disease is a spontaneous and idiopathic avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

There is no associated bone fragment. Treatment options include a short course of NSAIDs or acetaminophen; icing; patellar counterforce strap; hamstring, quadriceps, and heel cord stretches; and relative rest.16 It can take 12 to 24 months for symptoms to completely resolve. This typically involves the separation of the posterior tibial insertion of the PCL to variable degrees. Branches of the femoral, popliteal, and circumflex fibular arteries, and posterior recurrent branches of posterior tibial artery form a peri-articular genicular anastomosis, which in turn provides blood supply to the tibiofemoral joint1. Appropriate referral is warranted in the presence of any of the following warning signs: severe pain, history of trauma, inability to bear weight, odd location of pain, night pain, systemic signs of illness or infection, or a history of cancer.10 Figure 8 shows common locations of apophysitis and osteochondrosis.1 Although rare, inflammatory arthropathies in children, especially in multiple joints, should be considered, and further evaluation and referral to a pediatric rheumatologist would be warranted.10 Stress fractures should also be considered if no radiographic evidence of osteochondrosis is apparent and the pain does not localize to apophyseal centers.10, This article updates a previous article on this topic by Atanda, et al.1.

Smith fractures, also known as Goyrand fractures in the French literature 3, are fractures of the distal radius with associated volar angulation of the distal fracture fragment(s). Other locations include the medial epicondyle, which is common in patients who throw or participate in racket sports, and more rarely at the base of the fifth metatarsal (i.e., Iselin disease). Anderson and D'Alonzo From lateral to medial, superior to inferior,ensure to inspect 1: It is worth spending extra time scrutinising areas of superimposition such as the fibular head and patella. Odontoid process fracture, also known as a peg or dens fracture, occurs where there is a fracture through the odontoid process of C2. Epidemiology. Rarely, a torus fracture may refer to the fracture of an oral torus, and there is potential for the two terms to be confused 10. With the most severe injuries, there is a structural failure in a characteristic pattern: The overall extent of injury is quite variable.

It is a rare but disabling disease affecting 10.8 in 100,000 children in a 5:1 male-to-female ratio.31 Patients are usually affected from ages four to eight years.32 Risk factors include short stature, hyperactivity, lower latitude of birth, obesity, low birth weight, and smoking exposure.32. Trimalleolar fractures refer to a three-part fracture of the ankle. Based on expert opinion and consensus guidelines in the absence of clinical trials. CT. patella tendon: inferior pole of patella to tibial tuberosity; patella tendon length = patella length 20%. As a historical note, there are four methods of judicial hanging, and the process is more complicated than may be evident at first glance. Prevention of overuse conditions can be accomplished by reducing early sports specialization (before high school) and overtraining.10 Patients undergoing growth spurts are especially vulnerable as bone growth outpaces muscle lengthening, adding to inflexibility of the joint. Check for errors and try again. Treatment requires either a tibial tuberosity osteotomy and re-implantation proximally or patellar tendon lengthening. The apophysis is two to five times weaker than the surrounding structures, including the muscle tendon complex, ligaments, and bones.5 Inflexibility as well as bone growth before muscle lengthening can contribute to increased tension at the apophysis.4 Certain sports and activities have a predilection for specific apophyseal locations. There is usually an accompanying fracture of a paired bone, e.g. Dorsal avulsion fracture. A pathological fracture, although a type of insufficiency fracture, is a term in general reserved for fractures occurring at the site of a focal bony abnormality.Some authors use the term stress fracture synonymously with fatigue fracture, and thus some caution with the term is suggested.. With this mechanism, the anterior tibiofibular ligament avulses the anterolateral corner of the distal tibial epiphysis 3. Measurement The Insall-Salvati ratio was initially determined on a 30 flexed lateral knee x-ray and was later applied to sagittal MRI. Radiography can be helpful in evaluating for other pathologies but is usually not necessary. These type of fractures are more common in children, especially aged 5-10 years, due to the elasticity of their bones.
