BACKGROUND: Lacking rational basis for the postoperative treatment of fifth metatarsal avulsion fractures.
METHODS: Biomechanical test of stability of tension banding and screw fixation of fifth metatarsal avulsion fractures in cadaver specimen, sonographic measuring of the maximum cross-section of the peroneus brevis muscle, electromyographic examinations of the activity of the peroneus brevis muscle at different loads and means of immobilization.
RESULTS: The forces acting on the base of the fifth metatarsal bone during voluntary activation of the peroneus brevis muscle or activation in the gait cycle are of the same magnitude as the failure forces of internal fixation. Immobilization of the talocrural joint achieves no reduction in muscle activation. Partial weight bearing reduces muscle activation.
CONCLUSIONS: The postoperative treatment after osteosynthesis of fifth metatarsal avulsion fractures should be partial weight bearing. For safety reasons we add an elastic ankle orthesis to prevent supination. A below-knee cast is not necessary.
