A 7-year-old boy presented with right arm pain after falling on an outstretched arm while playing. Examination revealed tenderness over the distal forearm with full range of motion of the fingers and intact neurovascular status. X-ray showed a non-displaced torus fracture of the distal radius. Treatment consists of splinting and a short arm cast for 3 weeks for comfort and prevention of further injury, with no reduction needed. Torus fractures are unique to children and occur when pediatric bone buckles rather than fully fracturing under axial loads.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

4. Arrow shows a non-displaced torus fracture at the metaphysealdiaphyseal junction of the distal radius with no articular or growth
plate involvement.
5. Pain Control
Treatment consists of splinting with Ortho follow up
in one wk, usually followed by a short arm cast for 3
wks for pt comfort and to prevent further injury. No
reduction necessary.
6. Pediatric bone is more porous than adult bone, allowing it
to bend, buckle, or deform, with actual fracture. Hence,
torus fx is unique to pediatric pts.
Also called a “Buckle” fracture
Most common location is distal radius.
Occur at the diaphyseal-metaphyseal junction, where the
transition from relatively porous to more dense bone
predisposes to local failure when exposed to an axial load.
It is important that x-ray be carefully examined to ascertain
that tension side is intact.
If fx is not on compression side then pt has greenstick fx,
not a torus fx, & fx may proceed to deform in the cast.
