Abstract des Autors
The majority of tibial shaft fractures are the result of traffic accidents, and these fractures are rare in athletes other than those involved in motor sports. In weightlifting, fractures have usually been described to occur in the lumbar ring apophysis and wrist. This report describes a spontaneous shaft fracture of the tibia during weightlifting. We examined in detail as to whether there were any abnormalities in the patient's metabolic, hormonal, and bone mineral status. The possible injury mechanisms that led to this fracture were reviewed.
