The tibia and fibula are the two bones in your lower leg, and a comminuted fracture refers to a bone being broken into multiple fragments, as opposed to a clean break.

A comminuted fracture is when a bone breaks into more than two pieces, and they’re most common in high-impact traumas, such as car accidents, according to Spine-Health.com.

Yes, quite a nasty smash,—a comminuted fracture, the doctor called it.

Treatment.—In simple comminuted fractures the patient should be anæsthetised, and the foot moulded into position, care being taken to restore the arch in order to avoid any tendency to flat foot.

In some cases small, bony fragments from a comminuted fracture, becoming loose and acting as foreign bodies, give rise to troublesome fistulous tracts.
