A fracture resulting from repeated, relatively trivial, trauma to an otherwise normal bone. It occurs not as a sudden break in bony continuity but as the result of alteration of the bone in the form of gradual local dissolution. Fatigue fracture occurs most frequently in the lower extremities, especially the metatarsals, and only rarely in the upper extremities. 2, record 14, English, - fatigue%20fracture

Fracture survenant sur un os sain à la suite de contraintes minimes longtemps répétées. Il s’agit de modifications très localisées de la structure osseuse qui, par persistance du traumatisme, évoluent jusqu'à la fracture. La fracture de fatigue atteint surtout le membre inférieur(base du 2e, 3e ou 4e métatarsien, péroné). 2, record 14, French, - fracture%20de%20fatigue

Le terme de «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; [...] il semble plus logique de parler de fracture de stress, reflétant davantage les circonstances de survenue, et d’abandonner le terme de fracture de fatigue qui peut créer une ambiguïté.

In children, bending of a long bone or bones occurring as a result of angulation and compressive forces, without any evidence of a fracture. It is particularly common in the radius or ulna and less commonly found in the fibula. In the forearm both bones may be bowed, or there may be an associated complete or incomplete fracture or dislocation of the other. The fibular bow fracture is usually associated with a complete fracture of the tibia. [From RSKEL, 1982, pp. 68, 69.] 3, record 15, English, - bowing%20fracture

Chez l'enfant, incurvation diaphysaire d’un os long soumis à une compression axiale, sans trait de fracture décelable. Elle se rencontre surtout au niveau du cubitus ou du radius, parfois du péroné. l'avant-bras, le plus souvent, la fracture plastique d’un des deux os accompagne une fracture vraie de l'autre os. Plus rarement, elle intéresse simultanément les deux os de l'avant-bras. Au niveau du péroné, elle est presque toujours associée à une fracture du tibia.
