Podiatric pathology of lupus erythematosus.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Proximal diaphyseal stress fractures of the fifth metatarsal are common in athletes. Conservative treatment has been shown to result in high rates of delayed union, nonunion, and refracture, so internal fixation has become the treatment of choice in competitive athletes. METHODS:Twenty top-level athletes wi...
