Navicular Stress Fractures.
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons 2021 Februrary 16
Navicular stress fractures are multifactorial injuries due to chronic overload on the navicular, particularly in young athletes. The navicular is subject to unique stresses and has a complex blood supply, making it susceptible to stress fractures and potentially delayed union or nonunion. Expeditious diagnosis is critical to prevent a delay in treatment and a poor outcome. Advanced imaging is essential in making the diagnosis and monitoring healing. Both nonsurgical and surgical treatments have demonstrated good results. Nonsurgical management consists of a period of immobilization and nonweight bearing, and surgical management typically involves open reduction and internal fixation. Patients need to be appropriately counseled regarding expectations for these challenging injuries.
