An x-ray may be ordered by the surgeon. Avulsion fractures are sometimes overlooked when an x-ray is taken or when the injury to MT V occurs together with an ankle sprain. In this case other imaging studies are recommended, such as MR imaging, CT scan or scintigrams.
An avulsion fracture is an uncommon but very painful type of injury in which, in the case of a heel fracture, the Achilles tendon is torn away from the bone, taking with it a piece of the calcaneus. Immediate surgery in such cases decreases the risk of further injury to the Achilles tendon.
