Bicycle-Related Injuries Although superficial soft tissue injuries and musculoskeletal trauma are the most common injuries, head injuries are responsible for most fatalities and long-term disabilities. Overuse injuries may contribute to a variety of musculoskeletal complaints, compression neuropathies, perineal and genital complaints.

Common Knee Injuries Fractures. The most common bone broken around the knee is the patella. The ends of the femur and tibia where they meet to form the knee joint can also be fractured. Many fractures around the knee are caused by high energy trauma, such as falls from significant heights and motor vehicle collisions.

- Stress fractures can be described as a very small sliver or crack in the bone; and are sometimes referred to as hairline fractures. Stress fractures most frequently occur in weight-bearing bones, such as the tibia (bone of the lower leg), metatarsals, and navicular bones (bones of the foot).Less common are fractures to the femur, pelvis, and sacrum.tress fractures can be described as a very small sliver or crack in the bone; and are sometimes referred to as hairline fractures.

- The most common fracture mechanism in cervical injuries is hyperflexion. Anterior subluxation occurs when the posterior ligaments rupture. Since the anterior and middle columns remain intact, this fracture is stable. Simple wedge fracture is the result of a pure flexion injury.

Dynamic Response Due to Behind Helmet Blunt Trauma Measured with a Human Head Surrogate Simple or linear fractures are the most common type of skull fracture and are caused by low-energy, blunt force trauma over a wide area of the skull. Basilar skull fractures are linear fractures, but occur at the base of the skull and are associated with more severe trauma due to longer duration impulsive loads.

Stress Fractures Stress fractures are some of the most common sports injuries. They are tiny breaks in the bone, usually caused by repetitive stress from activities like running.Although they can be quite painful, they usually heal themselves if rested for a few months.Many different sports raise the risk of stress fractures.tress fractures seem to be more common in women. Other risk factors for stress fractures include: drinking more than10 alcoholic drinks a week, smoking, running more than 25 miles a week, osteoporosis, eating disorders and low levels of vitamin D.

Fixing Hip Fractures There are three broad categories of hip fractures based on the location of the fracture: femoral neck fractures, intertrochanteric fractures, and subtrochanteric fractures. Femoral Neck Fractures. The femoral neck is the most common location for a hip fracture, accounting for 45% to 53% of hip fractures. Per 100,000 person years, approximately 27.7 femoral neck fractures occur in men and 63.3 occur in women.

Fractures or Dislocations Several types of fractures exist, but fractures resulting in bone fragments that penetrate the surface of the skin (called compound fractures or open fractures) are particularly dangerous.Loss of normal positioning of the fractured extremity can obstruct blood flow to the affected limb. dislocation occurs when 2 bones are out of place at the joint that connects them. Dislocation may also cause injury to nerves and blood vessels. Joints that become dislocated and later heal are more likely to become dislocated again.

Shoulder Fractures 1 Scapula Fractures: Fractures of this bone rarely occur. They usually result from high-energy trauma such as motor vehicle accidents or a far fall.  Proximal Humerus Fractures: Fractures of the upper part of the arm are more common in the older (over 65 years of age) population.

Anatomy Fractures caused by osteoporosis most often occur in the spine. These spinal fractures — called vertebral compression fractures — occur in nearly 700,000 patients each year. They are almost twice as common as other fractures typically linked to osteoporosis, such as broken hips and wrists. Not all vertebral compression fractures are due to osteoporosis. But when the disease is involved, a fracture is often a patient's first sign of a weakened skeleton from osteoporosis.

Lumbosacral Spine Acute Bony Injuries The thoracolumbar spine and lumbar spine are the most common sites for fractures because of the high mobility of the lumbar spine compared to the more rigid thoracic spine.Injury to the cord or cauda equina occurs in approximately 10-38% of adult thoracolumbar fractures and in as many as 50-60% of fracture dislocations.

Thoracic Spine Fracture Compression fractures (also termed wedge fractures) are the most common type of thoracic spine fracture. They occur when the spine is bent forward (forward flexion) or sideways (lateral flexion) at the moment of trauma, causing the front (anterior) or side (lateral) region of the vertebra, respectively, to be compressed.

Growth Plate Fractures These fractures break through part of the bone at the growth plate and crack through the bone shaft, as well. This is the most common type of growth plate fracture. These fractures cross through a portion of the growth plate and break off a piece of the bone end. This type of fracture is more common in older children.

Femoral Fractures Fractures of the femoral neck - far more common in the elderly. Fractures of the femoral shaft and supracondylar fractures - usually caused by violent trauma and most often occur in adolescents and young adults. Femoral stress fractures - partial-thickness fractures, most commonly affecting the femoral neck.
