DEF

[...] micro-fracture à l'échelon de l'estéon [...] se complétant par persistance du stress soumis à l'os sous forme d'une authentique fracture macroscopique créant une solution de continuité complète sur la pièce osseuse.

OBS

Le terme fracture de fatigue est ambigu : il fait croire que l'os intéressé est un os fatigué [...] alors qu'une fracture de fatigue survient sur un os strictement normal [...] pourquoi il semble plus logique de parler de fracture de stress, reflétant davantage les circonstances de survenue [de la fracture].
