Can low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) accelerate bone healing after intramedullary screw fixation for proximal fifth metatarsal stress fractures? A retrospective study

Abstract Background Intramedullary screw fixation is considered the standard treatment for proximal fifth metatarsal stress fractures. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is a well-known bone-healing enhancement device. However, to the best of our knowledge, no clinical study has focused on the...
