A study of 16 patients with myelomeningocele who sustained 37 fractures revealed that children with diaphyseal and metaphyseal fractures presented with local warmth, redness, swelling, and increased general body temperature, leukocytosis, and sedimentation rate. These fractures were the result of a single stress or trauma and healed uneventfully by splinting for approximately 4 weeks. In physeal injuries, which probably resulted from repetitive stresses, the systemic response was less pronounced. These injuries had to be immobilized more rigidly in plaster casts for a minimum of 8 weeks.
一项针对16例患有脊髓脊膜膨出且发生了37处骨折的患儿的研究表明，患有骨干和干骺端骨折的儿童表现出局部发热、发红、肿胀，以及全身体温升高、白细胞增多和血沉加快。这些骨折是由单一压力或创伤导致的，通过夹板固定约4周后顺利愈合。在可能由反复压力导致的骨骺损伤中，全身反应不太明显。这些损伤必须用石膏绷带更严格地固定至少8周。
