  • Title: Fatigue stress fractures of the pubic ramus in the army: imaging features with radiographic, scintigraphic and MR imaging findings.
    Author: Lee SW, Lee CH.
    Journal: Korean J Radiol; 2005; 6(1):47-51. PubMed ID: 15782021.
    Abstract:
    Although fatigue fractures are not unusual in athletes and military personnel those of the pubic ramus are rare. We report three cases of fatigue fractures of the inferior pubic rami in two male recruits and one female military cadet. On the initial radiograph, most of the lesions were subtle and easy to overlook. However, bone scintigraphy provided more distinct images that allowed easy and early detection of lesions, and MR imaging presented more diagnostic information, which allowed a precise diagnosis.
