abstract="When a blow to the sternum causes pain in a young athlete, the differential diagnosis can be complicated by persistence of an unfused growth center that does not normally fuse until age 18. We report a case of physeal injury in the sternum that was originally diagnosed as a stress fracture. The young football player in this case may have been predisposed to such an injury by abnormal synostosis of the sternomanubrial junction.  Keywords: American football <p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
