MARCH FRACTURE OF THE FEMUR

Report of a Case

Leonard T. Peterson M.D.1

1 Orthopaedic Section, Walter Reed General Hospital

In view of the course and roentgenographic findings, biopsy was not performed. With increased military training for previously inactive young men, additional cases may be encountered.
