title: [Traumatic bending of the bones (Bowing fracture)--a special type of skeletal lesion].
abstract: The authors draw attention to the disease pattern of the so-called bowing fracture, basing on examples from their own group of patients. This is a traumatic bending of the bones without any roentgenological identification of a fracture. It is characteristic of this condition that it takes quite some time -- if the case arises at all -- before a discrete apposition of the bones is seen.
