RADIOLOGIC CASE STUDY
TL;DRAbstract
Fatigue-type stress fractures occur following repetitive loading of normal bone. These occur frequently in the tibia, although vertical orientation to the fracture is much less common than transverse orientation. Without a convincing history of new or accelerated muscular activity, imaging can be difficult to interpret and evaluation may require more than one imaging modality to exclude other diagnostic considerations, including neoplasm and osteomyelitis.
