Toddler’s fracture
This is usually a torque injury when the wobbling toddler pivots quickly or trips and falls. Toddler’s fractures occur in children 1 to 3 years of age, most commonly in the distal 1/3 of the tibia. Sometimes a long-leg cast is needed, but currently there is a new trend in foregoing casting in mild cases.
