Abstract
Stress fractures are common in athletes. Most stress fractures occur in runners, with the majority being in the lower extremities. In one review of 320 stress fractures in athletes, all occurred at or below the level of the lumbar spine. Stress fractures of the olecranon of the ulna have been noted in baseball pitchers and javelin throwers. Stress fractures of the ulnar diaphysis have been described in softball pitchers, tennis players with two-handed backhands, weightlifters, and volleyball players. This report is the first described case of an ulnar diaphyseal stress fracture in a bowler. Verf.-Referat
