Fracture of the Tuberosity of the Ischium Due to Muscular Action

Abstract

The only mention made of it by Scudder in the latest edition of his work is the statement that it is extremely rare.Stimpson mentions six cases collected by Malgaigne.Cotton in his recent book states he has no doubt that it may occur, and he has seen a number of cases in which that diagnosis had been made, but none in which it was justified.

A New and Improved Apparatus for Uterotubal Insufflation

“…In Berry's 3 case the roentgenographic observations were identical with those in the case here reported, except that the separated fragment was larger. Milch's * case also seems to be similar.…”

Chronic (Ten Years) Ischial Tuberosity Avulsion Fracture Nonunion Treated with Fragment Excision and Simultaneous Primary Repair of the Hamstring Tendon

“…I schial tuberosity avulsion fractures were first described by Berry in 1912 13 . They are uncommon injuries that occur primarily in adolescent athletes [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] .…”

Adolescent Avulsion Injuries of the Pelvis

“…Treatment options range from conservative to surgical methods with the latter being reserved for persistent symptoms such as continued pain at a signifi cant time point after the acute event due to bony or fi brous nonunion ( Berry, 1912 ;Martin & Pipkin, 1957). Surgical intervention involves removal of nonunifi ed fragments and reports have revealed symptom resolution with this technique (Rogge & Romano, 1956;Schlonsky & Olix, 1972).…”

“…Avulsion fractures of the pelvis (Ischial Tuberosity) were fi rst described by Berry in 1912( Berry, 1912 with the fi rst report of an anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) avulsion injury being reported in 1929 ( Kohler, 1929 ). They are seen in adults and more commonly in the athletic male adolescents, with some arguing that they are most common in those athletes competing in sporting activities such as football and gymnastics (Rossi & Dragoni, 2001).…”
