Types of Fractures
Medical professionals often refer to a fracture with one of the following terms:
Single Fracture: When a bone is broken in only one place.
Complete Fracture: When it is clear that the bone is broken into two separate pieces.
Bending Fracture: An unusual bend in a bone without actual cracking. This is rare but may occur in children.
Hairline Fracture: This is a thin break in a bone. The bone is not completely broken.
Greenstick Fracture: A break in a bone limited to only one side. The bone is broken, but the break does not go across the entire bone.
Comminuted Fracture: Sometimes called a shatter fracture or crushed bone fracture, in which the bone is broken into more than two pieces. Often, traumatic events, like automobile accidents, cause these fractures.
Open Fracture: This can result from significant trauma, such as a serious automobile collision or gunshot wound. In an open fracture, the bone penetrates the skin. Typically, this fracture requires surgery and creates a risk of infection to the bone and the area surrounding the wound.
