Iselin's disease (traction apophysitis of the tuberosity of the fifth metatarsal) has been reported rarely, but is probably more common than appreciated. It appears to be more common in athletically active older children and adolescents. Four patients with this condition were treated conservatively and all had resolution or improvement of symptoms. In one, however, nonunion developed and continues to cause intermittent pain at age 20 years. Early recognition and treatment may prevent long-term complications.
伊塞林氏病（第五跖骨粗隆牵引性骨突炎）报道较少，但可能比人们认为的更为常见。该病在运动活跃的大龄儿童和青少年中似乎更为常见。4例该疾病患者接受了保守治疗，所有患者症状均缓解或改善。然而，其中1例出现骨不连，在20岁时仍持续引起间歇性疼痛。早期识别和治疗可能预防长期并发症。
