**5th MT fx that occurs within 1.5cm of the tuberosity
***Lies distal to both the tarso-metatarsal joint and joint between 4th and 5th MTs

Talus

  • Neck
    • High risk of avscular necrosis
  • Body
    • Delay in dx/tx can lead to non-union or subtalar osteoarthritis

Calcaneus

  • If suspect fx order an axial view
  • Types
    • Intra-articular (75%)
      • Sclerotic line may be only e/o impacted fracture
      • May only be apparent based on decreased Bohler's angle (<30degrees)
      • Draw line from highest posterior to highest point of calcaneus
      • Draw line from highest anterior to highest point of calcaneus
    • Extra-articular (25%)
      • Anterior process fx is most common (lateral radiograph)

Fifth Metatarsal

Jones Fracture

  • <1.5 cm from proximal tip of 5th metatarsal
  • transverse
  • insertion point of peroneus tertius
  • ORIF

Dancer's (Avulsion) Fracture

  • proximal tip pf 5th metatarsal
  • spiral frx
  • avulsion
  • common in ballet dancers (inversion)
  • mechanism: inversion
  • frequently displaced
  • Do not confuse unfused apophysis with a fracture!
  • treatment
    • mildly displaced frx: heal w/ 6 to 8 weeks w/ short leg cast
    • displaced frxs (3-5 mm) may require ORIF
