  • Title: [Diagnostic difficulties of isolated symptomatic unilamellar periosteal appositions. Uncommon form of fatigue fracture in children].
    Author: Arrivé L, Sellier N, Kalifa G, Seringe R.
    Journal: J Radiol; 1988 May; 69(5):351-6. PubMed ID: 3404509.
    Abstract:
    We describe five cases of painful periosteal reaction occurring in children. The initial radiographic appearance of stress fracture may be troublesome since the new bone formation may be confused with malignant bone lesion. Because of the importance of making a correct diagnosis multiple imaging techniques will often be employed. We discuss the radiographic signs and their usefulness in the differential diagnostic of periosteal reaction.
