  2. Ankle fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankle_fracture

    Ankle fractures may result from excessive stress on the joint such as from rolling an ankle or from blunt trauma. [1] [2] Types of ankle fractures include lateral malleolus, medial malleolus, posterior malleolus, bimalleolar, and trimalleolar fractures. [1] The Ottawa ankle rule can help determine the need for X-rays. [2]

  4. Stress fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_fracture

    A stress fracture is a fatigue-induced bone fracture caused by repeated stress over time. Instead of resulting from a single severe impact, stress fractures are the result of accumulated injury from repeated submaximal loading, such as running or jumping. Because of this mechanism, stress fractures are common overuse injuries in athletes. [1]

  5. Avascular necrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avascular_necrosis

    Risk factors include bone fractures, joint dislocations, alcoholism, and the use of high-dose steroids. [1] The condition may also occur without any clear reason. [1] The most commonly affected bone is the femur (thigh bone). [1] Other relatively common sites include the upper arm bone, knee, shoulder, and ankle. [1]

    A stress fracture is a fatigue-induced bone fracture caused by repeated stress over time. Instead of resulting from a single severe impact, stress fractures are the result of accumulated injury from repeated submaximal loading, such as running or jumping. Because of this mechanism, stress fractures are common overuse injuries in athletes. [18]

  7. Occult fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occult_fracture

    Of the three types of occult fractures mentioned above, the latter two, fatigue fracture secondary to repetitive and unusual stress being applied to bone with normal elastic resistance, and insufficiency fracture resulting from normal or minimal stress on a bone with decreased elastic resistance are also described as "stress fractures". [1]

  8. Malleolus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malleolus

    Studies have shown [3] that bimalleolar fractures are more common in women, people over 60 years of age, and patients with existing comorbidities. [3] A trimalleolar fracture is a fracture of the ankle that involves the lateral malleolus, the medial malleolus, and the distal posterior aspect of the tibia, which can be termed the posterior ...
