A greenstick fracture occurs when a bone bends and cracks, instead of breaking completely into separate pieces. The fracture looks similar to what happens when you try to break a small, "green" branch on a tree. Most greenstick fractures occur in children younger than 10 years of age.
A greenstick fracture is a partial thickness fracture where only cortex and periosteum are interrupted on one side of the bone but remain uninterrupted on the other. [1] They occur most often in long bones, including the fibula, tibia, ulna, radius, humerus, and clavicle.

Greenstick fractures are incomplete fractures of long bones and are usually seen in young children, more commonly less than 10 years of age. They are commonly mid-diaphyseal, affecting the forearm and lower leg. They are distinct from torus fractures.
Buckle fractures happen when a bone is pressed to the point of bulging out of place. The fracture looks like a bump on a bone. Greenstick fractures happen when a child's bone is bent to the point that it cracks but doesn't break all the way through.
Children are more likely to suffer from nondisplaced fractures such as greenstick fractures where the bone is bent but cracks only partway through, while older adults are more likely to take much longer to heal due to their brittle bones.
A greenstick fracture is a crack or break on one side of a long bone in the arm or leg that does not extend all the way through the bone. Children are more likely to have greenstick fractures because their bones are softer and less brittle than an adult's.
Greenstick fractures are another common type of fracture that happen in children, because of how soft their bones are. Spiral fractures are most likely to occur in these bones: tibia, or shinbone.
