Avulsion fracture of the ischial tuberosity (AFIT) is a rare adolescent sports injury. At present, there is no consensus on its therapeutic paradigm, but conservative treatment appears to be the predominate choice.

Avulsion fractures happen when a small piece of bone is pulled away by a muscle or tendon. The ischial tuberosity, located in the buttocks, is where the hamstring tendons attach to the pelvis. These fractures often occur in teenagers.

Ischial Tuberosity Avulsion Fracture refers to a fracture of the growth plate of the ischial tuberosity seen in children. This sometimes referred to as a salter harris fracture or epiphysiolysis. Treatment is based on the degree of displacement and function of the patient.

The majority of fractures of the ischium are associated with acetabular fractures that affect the posterior column. The obturator foramen is a fixed ring structure. A fracture in one part of the ring will almost always lead to a fracture of the ischiopubic ramus.

2024年11月25日 · This is the first report of acute avulsion fracture of the ischial tuberosity (AFIT) treated by suture anchor fixation using the suture bridge technique. A 13-year-old boy developed sudden, severe right hip pain while running a short distance.
