Abstract
Pelvic stress fractures are rare and present unique challenges for medical personnel. Delayed healing can lead to increased physical, psychological, and social stress for athletes. Recent literature suggests effective use of a synthetic derivative of parathyroid hormone, teriparatide, to augment healing of delayed-union stress fractures. We present a case of a female National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I gymnast successfully returned to play after a 12-week course of teriparatide injections for an ischioacetabular stress fracture.
