A nondisplaced distal tibial fracture at the ankle can look like an ankle sprain, with mild swelling accompanied by pain when the child stands or tries to walk. X-rays will show very subtle signs that ...

Tibial shaft fractures affect the central part of the shin bone. Often requiring a cast or surgery, these fractures may require emergency treatment.

Tibia fractures are the most common lower extremity fractures in children. They account for 10 to 15 percent of all pediatric fractures. Fractures can be described as low-energy — caused by twisting ...
