Patients with a fifth metatarsal styloid fracture or a Jones fracture (proximal diaphysis) exhibit marked tenderness at the proximal fifth metatarsal, and bruising may be present. Core Conditions 03.2 - lower limb trauma pre-reading, Avulsion fracture of the 5th metatarsal styloid, Fractures of the proximal fifth metatarsal. Pathophysiology Fifth Metatarsal has thinnest cortical thickness of any Metatarsal III. They result from forceful displacement in a flexed knee or from hyperextension. 25.5). There is marked lateral displacement of the 2nd through 5th metatarsals and medial displacement of the distal 1st metatarsal fracture fragment. Look for pain, swelling, or tenderness of the lateral malleolus or both malleoli. It is important to check for navicular and fibular head tenderness as well. BMC Musculoskelet Disord. Avulsion fractures of the 5th metatarsal styloid should be differentiated from other types of fractures that occur at the base of the 5th metatarsal as well as the normal 5th metatarsal apophysis. Metatarsal fractures are relatively common injuries of the foot.

Avulsion fractures of the 5th metatarsal styloid should be differentiated from other fractures at the base of the 5th metatarsal because these fractures can be treated conservatively and heal well. An avulsion fracture can also occur with a sudden force applied to the 5th metatarsal bone. Generally, an avulsion fracture of the fifth metatarsal can heal in six weeks, though it may take longer if there is significant damage to surrounding tissues or bones. 7) are often readily detected on conventional radiographs of the foot, with the exception of avulsion fractures of the tip of the tuberosity at the base of the fifth metatarsal, which can require an anteroposterior ankle radiograph [10]. The zonal classification is helpful in this case. Diagnosis of avulsion fractures of the distal fibula after lateral ankle sprain in children : a diagnostic accuracy study comparing ultrasonography with radiography. {"url":"/signup-modal-props.json?lang=us\u0026email="}, Conditions R, Avulsion fracture fifth metatarsal. These result from laterally directed force on the forefoot with the ankle in plantar flexion (see Radiographic Evaluation for more information); they are caused by inversion of the foot. Generally, Jones fractures are at or distal to a transverse line drawn from the metatarsalcuboid joint. Methods: A total of 103 patients met the inclusion criteria. Based on a radiomorphometric analysis reflecting the risk for a secondary displacement, a new classification was developed. Fig. This can be confused due to the location of the os peroneum just proximal to the 5th metatarsal. Fractures of the foot are common and often involve the fifth metatarsal, the bone that runs from the middle of the foot to the base of the small toe (Fig. Page Views: 10,571 11.

The additional view should be an anteroposterior radiograph of the ankle that incl Diagnosis is made clinically with pain over the 5th metartarsal base with radiographs showing an enlarged apophysis with disordered ossification and widened chondro-osseous junction. Check for errors and try again. Important to distinguish each one of them. An avulsion fracture of the 5th metatarsal happens at the end of the bone closest the ankle, the part of the bone attached to the tendon. There is an undisplaced fracture through the base of the right fifth metatarsal, with evidence of intra-articular extension into the fifth TMTP joint. Unable to process the form. Fractures at the tuberosity of the fifth metatarsal are avulsion fractures (zone 1). Avulsion fracture of the 5th metatarsal styloid, Fractures of the proximal fifth metatarsal. If there is associated metatarsal tenderness of the base or proximal shaft and the area is not well visualized on standard ankle radiographs, then AP, lateral, and oblique foot radiographs should be obtained as well. Avulsion fracture of the 5th metatarsal styloid, also known as a pseudo-Jones fracture or a dancer fracture, is one of the more common foot avulsion injuries and accounts for over 90% of fractures of the base of the 5 th metatarsal. Tenderness at the base of the fifth metatarsal may be present. ADVERTISEMENT: Supporters see fewer/no ads. The resulting injury is more serious (. Treatment is usually nonoperative with activity modifications, stretching, and a short period of cast immobilization as the condition typically resolves over time. Typically, patients are placed in a walking boot . FIGURE 25.1 Anatomical diagram demonstrating a displaced transverse of the fourth metatarsal shaft. These result from the placement of abnormal stress on a normal bone. Fractures at the proximal diaphysis (shaft) are Jones fractures (zone 2). always check and record the neurovascular status. Type 1 is simple avulsion with variable sized bone fragment, type 2 is beak fracture with horizontal fracture extending into posterior body, type 3 is avulsion by superficial fibers of middle third of Achilles tendon, and type 4 is small beak fracture avulsed from deep fibers of tendon. 2nd ed. A Based on anatomic location and clinical course, there are two distinct groups of fractures involving the proximal portion of the fifth metatarsal [1,2,3,4,5].The two types are an avulsion fracture of the tuberosity and a transverse fracture of the proximal diaphysis within 1.5 cm of the tuberosity, also known as a . This fracture was produced in cadaver feet, and it was demonstrated by computed tomography and dissection that the probable cause is avulsion by the lateral cord of the plantar aponeurosis.

A comminuted fracture is present in the base of the 5th metatarsal bone, reaching the metatarsocuboid articular surface. Fractures at the tuberosity of the fifth metatarsal are avulsion fractures (zone 1). This region must be visualized on all ankle radiographs. The apophysis of the proximal 5th metatarsal (plural apophyses) lies laterally and is oriented longitudinally parallel to the shaft. It is prudent to not confuse os peroneum, an ossicle residing in the peroneus longus tendon, for a 5th metatarsal avulsion fracture. Lower Extremity Fractures of the Fifth Metatarsal Base Reference: Stevens, M. A., et al. 44D) demonstrates comminuted fractures of the 1st through 3rd metatarsal bases as well as all three cuneiforms.

Radiographs to order include anteroposterior (AP), lateral, and oblique views. Avulsion fractures of the proximal fifth metatarsal tuberosity can usually be managed with a soft dressing. Background:Nonoperative management has been the preferred treatment for displaced oblique spiral fractures of the fifth metatarsal shaft; yet a paucity of literature supports this claim. Stress fractures: Stress fractures of the metatarsals may occur distally at the metatarsal neck in runners. The main goal of treatment is to restore the alignment of all metatarsals, hence maintaining the arches of the forefoot and thereby resulting in the distribution of a normal weight under the head of metatarsals. 25.1). Peroneus Brevis attaches at the lateral side of the tuberosity (red area in figure 1), with peroneus tertius attaching at the dorsal side of the most proximal compartment of the metaphysis.
