Types of Fractures CI Traverse Linear Oblique Oblique Spiral Greenstick

Types of Fractures CI Traverse Linear Oblique Oblique Spiral Greenstick Comminuted Avulsion Fracture: when a fragment of bone is separated from the main mass. Comminuted Fracture: the bone breaks into several pieces. Compression Fracture: involves the bones in the back (vertebrae) Greenstick Fracture: an incomplete fracture in which the bone is bent; occurs most often in children. Oblique Fracture: the break has a curved or sloped pattern. These are slanted fractures that are straight. Spiral Fracture: one part of the bone has been twisted at the break point. Stress Fracture: a hairline crack. Transverse Fracture: the broken piece of bone is at a right angle to the bone’s axis Using the X-RAYS answer the following questions: . A 23-year-old male comes to the ER with a gunshot wound in the distal femoral region. The x-ray reveals the bone is shattered into multiple pieces. Pieces of lead can be seen in the x-ray. The ER doctor recommends the patient see orthopedic doctor for surgical repair. What type of fracture is this? 2. A 24-month-old pediatric patient comes into the clinic.
