Lisfranc fracture
refers to fracture/dislocation of TMT joint
Masionneuve fracture
spiral fracture of the upper third of fibula with tear of distal tibiofibular syndesmosis and interosseous membrane
Osgood-Schlatter disease
term used to describe chronic fatigue injury that affects growth and development of tibial apophysis at site of attachment of patellar tendon to the tibial tuberosity
Pott fracture
bimalleolar fracture
Shepard fracture
the lateral tubercle of the posterior process of the talus fracture. May simulate an os trigonum

Gustilo and Anderson
to describe open fractures
Type I: wound <1cm long. little soft tissue damage, no little comminution associated
Type II: wound >1 cm long. Minor soft tissue damage. Moderate comminution associated
Type III: extensive soft tissue injury with high degree of comminution
IIIA: soft tissue coverage of bone is adequate, traume is high energy
IIIB: extensive soft tissue damage associated with periosteal stripping
IIIC: any open fracture with arterial injury
