Figure 1

Young adult male with history of Rothmund-Thomson syndrome diagnosed at 2 years of age. Findings: (a) mildly comminuted and mildly displaced fracture through the mid diaphysis of the right tibia. There is lateral cortical thickening at the level of the fracture (arrow). (b) Mildly displaced fracture through the mid tibia diaphysis with focal anterior cortical thickening at the level of the fracture (arrow). Technique: (a) AP radiograph kVp = 66, mAs = 2, and (b) lateral radiograph kVp = 64, mAs = 2.
