  • Title: Evaluation and treatment of tibial stress fractures.
    Author: Young AJ, McAllister DR.
    Journal: Clin Sports Med; 2006 Jan; 25(1):117-28, x. PubMed ID: 16324978.
    Abstract:
    Tibial stress fractures are relatively common overuse injuries that can often be difficult to treat. Other comorbid medical conditions, including the female athlete triad, need to be carefully evaluated and treated. Nonoperative treatment is the standard, but surgical intervention may be necessary. Intramedullary nailing may allow return to sport but does not guarantee healing.
