For all useful purposes, the divisionsabove given are sufficient. Epiphyseal separations we shall not hesitate to class with fractures, and to submit them to the same rules of nomenclature. These acci-dents rarely occur after the twentieth year of life; since after thisperiod, and in the case of some bones at a much earlier period, theepiphyses are usually united to the diaphyses by bone. CHAPTER II. GENERAL ETIOLOGY OF FRACTURES. The causes of fracture may be considered as predisposing and ex-citing. Predisposing
