Answer:Types of Fractures
Fractures have a variety of names. Below is a listing of the common types that may occur:
Greenstick - Incomplete fracture. The broken bone is not completely separated.
Transverse - The break is in a straight line across the bone.
Spiral - The break spirals around the bone; common in a twisting injury.
Oblique - Diagonal break across the bone.
Compression - The bone is crushed, causing the broken bone to be wider or flatter in appearance.
Comminuted - The break is in three or more pieces and fragments are present at the fracture site.
Segmental - The same bone is fractured in two places, so there is a "floating" segment of bone.
