J BONE JOINT SURG BR , 1985, vol. 67, n° 5, p. 732-735 Doc n°: 29119 Localisation : Accès réservé Descripteurs : DE - MEMBRE INFERIEUR In a prospective study of 295 male Israeli recruits a 31% incidence of stress fractures was found. Eighty per cent of the fractures were in the tibial or femoral shaft, while only 8% occurred in the tarsus and metatarsus. Sixty-nine per cent of the femoral shaft, while only 8% occurred in the tarsus and metatarsus. Sixty-nine per cent of the femoral stress fractures were asymptomatic, but only 8% of those in the tibia. Even asymptomatic stress fractures do, however, need to be treated. Possible explanations for the unusually high incidence of stress fractures in this study are discussed. Auteur ancien : Langue : ANGLAIS Identifiant basis : 1986085199 |
