Q

WK type 1

A

Type I: Fracture line with no evidence of endosteal callus or periosteal reaction
o Looks like a radiolucent line following injury due to osteoclastic activity
o Example: Jones fracture or any acute fracture (this is the only thing you will see in an acute injury on x-ray)

Q

WK type 2

A
  • Type II: Focal sclerosis and endosteal callus
    o Radiopaque due to sclerosis
    o Cancellous bones will show this more than any other type of bone
    o You will see this at the base or the heads of the metatarsals
    o Also in the tarsal bones, calcaneus, metaphysis of the tibia

    o Shaft of metatarsal is common site of periosteal reaction due to movement in the shaft of the metatarsal (more so than the ends which are locked in a joint)

Notes on WK classification

A

o X-ray will show sclerosis (W-K II) if fracture in cancellous bone (ends of metatarsal bones, tarsal bones, proximal and distal tibia and fibula)
o Microfracture of trabeculae is first event to occur and incites osteoblastic activity
