Preferred Label : fractures, stress;
MeSH definition : Fractures due to the strain caused by repetitive exercise. They are thought to arise
from a combination of MUSCLE FATIGUE and bone failure, and occur in situations where
BONE REMODELING predominates over repair. The most common sites of stress fractures
are the METATARSUS; FIBULA; TIBIA; and FEMORAL NECK.;
