Common types of Bone fracture | 3D animation |

Bone Fracture Basics There are several types of bone fractures, and each type can have slight variations. 1. Transverse Fracture Transverse fractures are breaks that are in a straight line across the bone. 2. Open compound Fracture A fracture in which the bone breaks through the skin and can be seen outside the leg. 3. Oblique Fracture An oblique fracture is when the break is diagonal across the bone. 4. Comminuted Fracture A comminuted fracture is one in which the bone is broken into 3 or more pieces. 5. Segmental Fracture The same bone is fractured in two places, leaving a “floating” segment of bone between the two breaks. 6. Greenstick Fracture This is a partial fracture that occurs mostly in children. The bone bends and breaks but does not separate into two separate pieces. Children are most likely to experience this type of fracture because their bones are softer and more flexible. 7. Spiral Fracture As the name suggests, this is a kind of fracture that spirals around the bone. 8. Avulsion Fracture An avulsion fracture occurs when a fragment is pulled off the bone by a tendon or ligament.
