Abstract

Exercise-induced stress reactions and stress fractures are common causes of pain in athletes. Although most stress fractures are trans- verse in orientation, rarely longitudinal stress fractures may occur in the tibia and femur. Early detection is important to start prompt and appropriate treatment to prevent complications. Thus, familiarity with the clinical presentation, imaging findings, and treatment of this rare entity are important for proper and timely treatment.

期刊介绍： The Connecticut State Medical Society (CSMS) is a federation of eight component county medical associations, with a total membership exceeding 7,000 physicians. CSMS itself is a constituent state entity of the American Medical Association. Founded by the physician-patriots of the American Revolution, the Society operates from a heritage of democratic principles embodied in its Charter and Bylaws. The base of all authority in CSMS is, of course, the individual physician member. It is the decisions of members in their own county associations that ultimately determine the nature of the Society"s policies and activities.
