Treatment can be bracing or, more typically, internal fixation. The following features can be detected on ultrasound examination 7: anechoic defects and/or partial or full-thickness discontinuities of the tendon insertions in case of tears, loss of normal fibrillary architecture, thickening and hypoechogenicity of tendon insertions in case of tendinopathy, spurring and irregularities of the pubic bone, reproduction of symptoms on pressure with the ultrasound transducer, protrusion of pre-peritoneal fat through the Hesselbach triangle during abdominal strain, subchondral bone marrow edema, involving the entire anterior-posterior diameter of the pubic bone as a result of an osseous stress response, subchondral sclerosis and irregularities in chronic or longstanding cases, thickening of tendon insertion sometimes with concomitant signal alterations as a sign of tendinosis, partial or full-thickness tears displayed as fluid-filled defects, with or without tendon retraction, linear fluid signal running along the inferior margin of the inferior pubic ramus known as secondary cleft, injury or tear of the aponeurotic plate: fluid-signal intense subperiosteal cleft running from the symphysis along the inferior margin of the superior pubic ramus also known as superior cleft7,9, or a combination of all with a cleft extension of tears or clefts from the symphyseal joint capsule into the adductor tendons or rectus abdominis muscles 7. For the same reasons, CT aids in treatment planning as well 6. Decreased lumbar lordosis and deficient anterior coverage of the acetabulum are risk factors for SIF as well as decreased lateral coverage of the acetabulum. Subchondral insufficiency fracture of the femoral head: histopathologic correlation with MRI. In late reparative stage, fibrous tissue and fracture callus are seen around the fracture site. Most of subchondral fatigue fracture in young adults heals spontaneously and does not need a surgical treatment while SIF in the elderly is frequently associated with severe collapse and necessitates THR (Fig. Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent).

Nevertheless, it was not feasible to obtain a standing lateral view of the pelvis in all of our patients and it was difficult to obtain diagnostic quality images of the pelvis lateral view. Patients often recall an acute onset of severe pain without significant trauma. Other than describing the general appearance of the affected region, the following are necessary to include in the report as they have a bearing on prognosis and treatment: Often more sensitive than plain film in showing subchondral fractures. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2013;471:989999. 69 (3): 280-5.

Failure to recognize the SIF may lead to a misdiagnosis and erroneous treatment. Treatment is dependent on several factors taking into account both patient factors and fracture characteristics. Insufficiency fractures are a type of stress fracture, which are the result of normal stresses on abnormal bone. Palmer W, Bancroft L, Bonar F et al. However, sternal fractures associated with other injuries have a higher mortality rate. Classification. Epidemiology These fractures have an incidence 0.4% to 2.7%, and males are affected more-so than females. In the selection of controls, we did not exclude non-involved hips of patients who had post-traumatic osteonecrosis in one hip because there has been no reported association between abnormal acetabular coverage and femoral head osteonecrosis. Another type of subchondral fracture of the femoral head, so called subchondral fatigue fracture, has been observed mainly in young military trainees who are not osteoporotic. Hips of patients, who had history of organ transplantation, alcohol abuse (9, 10) and steroid use (11) were excluded. The Mitchell classificationis commonly used to classify AVN based on MR images.

We therefore asked whether a decrease of lumbar lordosis and a deficiency in the anterior acetabular coverage are risk factors. First, our study was a retrospective review of a small cohort. Orthop. 2016 The Korean Academy of Medical Sciences. The key to the diagnosis, in addition to identifying gross disruption of the normal alignment of the atlanto-occipital joint, hinges on using a number of lines on the lateral horizontal shoot-through cervical spine film 1: basion-dens interval (BDI)>10 mm in adults 3, basion-axial interval (BAI) >12 mm in adults, Powers ratio >1 (insensitive to a vertical distraction injury or posterior dissociation), ADVERTISEMENT: Supporters see fewer/no ads. The cause of Freiberg infraction is controversial and is probably multifactorial. 2011;15(4):372-82. In our study, decreased lumbar lordosis and deficient anterior coverage of the acetabulum were risk factors of SIF as well as deficient lateral coverage of the acetabulum. This work was performed at the Joint Reconstruction Center, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital. The term athletic pubalgia refers to a spectrum of injuries that includes tendinopathy of the aponeurosis, separation of the aponeurotic plate from the pubic bone, frank tearing of the aponeurotic plate, myotendinous strain within the rectus abdominis or abductor longus muscles, pubic tubercle apophysitis, and stress reaction/fracture in the parasymphyseal region of the pubic bones ref.

Treatment and prognosis Treatment. Treatment of isolated injury is generally conservative, unless there is craniocervical junction instability. An undisplaced fracture, particularly in the non-dominant arm of a non-athlete can be treated conservatively (three weeks in an upper arm splint) with good results 2,3 . Decrease of lateral center edge angle is a risk factor for osteoarthritis in hip dysplasia (6). Ann Rheum Dis 2008;67:150153. (1985) Radiology. Management depends not only on the type of fracture but also importantly on the functional status and living situation of the patient. Treatment can be bracing or, more typically, internal fixation. There were 33 women and 4 men. The results of our study could afford information to diagnose SIF in osteoporotic elderly patients. Isolated sternal injuries have a very good outcome with conservative management, with most healing in a few months with a very low mortality rate (<1%) 1.
