Q

Pathological fracture

A

When force or impact ride cause the break, underlying disease/ infection causes break/ makes bone weak and predisposed to breaking

16
Q

Non-comminuted fracture

A

Where the fracture penetrates completely through the vine separating it into 2 fragments

17
Q

Impactioj fracture

A

Bone is driven into itself due to compressive forces

18
Q

Torus/buckle fracture

A

Incomplete fracture with buckling (overlapping) of the cortex
Uncommon

19
Q

Chip fracture

A

Small chip of bone

20
Q

Bone bruise

A

Type of traumatic injury
Less severe - blood and fluid build up at in and around injured bone
Resolve in 8-12 weeks but may be seen on imaging up to 1 year after injury
Difficult to distinguish between fracture line
Forceful impact during sports, accidents or a direct hit - MRI. To diagnose

21
Q

Stable vs unstable fracture

A

Stable - won’t move during the healing process, requires a splint, depends on location

Unstable - potential to move during the healing process, all acute fracture tend to be unstable
