resulting in bone shortening. These fractures may be visible as a distinctive focal density in the trabeculae or irregularities in the bone cortex. Fractures of the torus (compression of the bone cortex) and green wood fractures (cracks in only one side of the cortex) are fractures in children. Spatial relationship between the fracture fragments. distraction

Angulation or shortening (overlapping) can occur. Distraction is a separation in the longitudinal axis. Dislocation is the degree
up to the broken ends are away from each other; the distance will be described in millimeters or percentages. Bend, the angle of the distal fragment
