Methods: During this period 64 patients (66 fractures; 35 tuberosity fractures, 10 Jones fractures, three stress fractures, two segmental shaft fractures and 16 oblique distal shaft\/neck fractures) were treated nonoperatively. Initial treatment was started from the day of injury to as long as 8 weeks after injury. All patients were treated ambulatory with immediate weightbearing. Results: The time to bony union averaged 3.7 months. The union rate was 98.5% with a satisfaction rate of 100%. Conclusions: By using closed treatment techniques bony union was predictable with minimal cost and a high satisfaction rate. We recommend nonoperative treatment of fifth metatarsal fractures for patients in whom the time to return to full activities is not critical.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/107110070502600907","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,13]],"date-time":"2017-01-13T08:38:11Z","timestamp":1484296691000},"page":"704-707","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":66,"title":["Nonoperative Treatment of Fifth Metatarsal Fractures in an Orthopaedic Suburban Private Multispeciality Practice"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Kurt F.","family":"Konkel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedics, Advanced Health Care, Inc., Menomonee Falls, WI"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrea G.","family":"Menger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedics, Advanced Health Care, Inc., Menomonee Falls, WI"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sharon A.","family":"Retzlaff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedics, Advanced Health Care, Inc., Menomonee Falls, WI"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-107110070502600907","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110078600700303"},{"key":"bibr2-107110070502600907","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110078300300511"},{"key":"bibr3-107110070502600907","unstructured":"3.
