Knee fractures can occur in many different ways, and they can range from mild to severe. The first type we'll discuss is the comminuted displaced fracture, which is a fracture that breaks the bone into several pieces that have shifted out of place. Next is the comminuted non-displaced fracture, which is similar but with the pieces still in alignment. The lower pole fracture happens at the bottom of the knee-cap, while an osteochondral fracture affects the cartilage and bone of the joint. The transverse displaced fracture is a clean break across the bone that has moved, and the transverse non-displaced fracture is similar, but the bone is still in alignment. The upper pole fracture is at the top of the kneecap, and a vertical fracture is a break that runs straight up and down. #animation #shorts #health #knee #fracture
