Q
A

Bending creates tensile and compressive loads on different sides of the bone. Failure occurs first on the side under tension resulting in a transverse distraction fracture. The fracture then propagates on the side under compression in an oblique configuration, with or without a butterfly fragment, illustrated by a Salter–Harris type II fracture of the proximal tibial physis in a 10-day-old foal and a mid-diaphyseal butterfly fracture of the third metatarsal bone in a foal.
