An R-O fracture, also known as a "reverse oblique fracture," is a type of bone fracture characterized by a diagonal break that occurs at an angle across the bone's shaft, typically accompanied by a twisting motion. This type of fracture often results from high-energy trauma, such as falls or accidents, and can affect both the cortical and cancellous bone. Treatment usually involves realignment and stabilization, which may require surgical intervention depending on the fracture's severity and location.
