What is a Flag sign?
|
It is also called a Thurston Holland sign. It is when the epiphyis is separated from the physis with the fractue extending into the metaphysis. It amkes a triangular fracture fragment.

|
|
What is Hawkins sign?
|
It is a subchondral radiolucency under the talar body on an ankle AP. This means that the talus does not have an AVN.
Between week 6-8 an AP o fthe ankle reveals the presence or absence of subchondral atrophy. Subchondral atrophy is indicative of vascularity of the talar body thereby excluding the diagnosis of AVN. |
