abstract="The pattern of a limb fracture can be determined by the material property of the bone and the characteristics of the deforming force. In this review we outline the composition and material properties of cortical and cancellous bone, and articular cartilage. We defi ne the biomechanics of fractures and describe the various fracture patterns that are seen clinically.
