Comparison of the rate of delayed/nonunion in fifth metatarsal fractures receiving anti-inflammatory medications.

Purpose: Controversy exists regarding the acute effect of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on early fracture healing. The purpose of this study was to analyze the rate of nonunion or delayed union in patients with fifth metatarsal (5 MT) fractures. We hypothesize that the use of NSAIDs would increase the rate of nonunion/delayed union in 5 MT fractures.
