Abstract

Due to similar clinical presentations, avulsion fractures are frequently missed on initial exam and categorically treated as "sprain" not otherwise specified. However, delays in appropriate diagnosis and treatment can result in further injury and long-term disability. This article will review multiple foot avulsion fractures, their respective mechanisms of injury, the clinical and radiographic presentations, and the most appropriate courses of treatment.
