| 2 | Greater trochanteric apophyseodesis in osteotomy procedure is one of the methods to prevent greater trochanteric overgrowth . | |
| 3 | With unceasing growth of hyperplasia and ossification of epiphysis cartilage, it makes bone to grow unceasingly, therefore it grows. | |
| 4 | Can appear along the blood-vessel of centrum brim calcification belt and ossification center, latter is epiphysis annulus in later period confluence. | |
| 5 | Conclusions Both intramedullary screw fixation and shock wave therapy are effective treatments for fracture nonunion in the metaphyseal-diaphyseal region of the fifth metatarsal. |
