Radiography to identify possible fractures after a knee injury. A bone fracture may be diagnosed based on the history given and the physical examination performed. Radiographic imaging often is performed to confirm the diagnosis. Under certain circumstances, radiographic examination of the nearby joints is indicated in order to exclude ...
[7] [2] Distal humeral fractures are related to high energy trauma from falling from a height or in a motor vehicle accident, this results in stiffness and restricted range of motion. [18] Elbow dislocation and radial head or neck fractures are common when one falls on an outstretched hand. [ 18 ]
Open fracture with extensive soft-tissue loss and periosteal stripping and bone damage. Usually associated with massive contamination.

Rib fractures usually occur from a direct blow to the chest such as during a motor vehicle collision or from a crush injury. [2] [1] Coughing or metastatic cancer may also result in a broken rib. [1] The middle ribs are most commonly fractured. [5] [1] Fractures of the first or second ribs are more likely to be associated with complications. [6]
Fragility fracture is a type of pathologic fracture that occurs as a result of an injury that would be insufficient to cause fracture in a normal bone. [2] There are three fracture sites said to be typical of fragility fractures: vertebral fractures, fractures of the neck of the femur, and Colles fracture of the wrist. This definition arises ...
