[00:00:00]Let's discuss the Lawrence and Bot classification of fifth metatarsal base fractures. Zone one represents the tuberosity, also called the pseudo Jones fracture.

[00:00:09]Zone two, or Jones fracture, the watershed or avascular area at the metaphysis diaphyseal junction.

[00:00:15]Fractures occurring in zone two have the greatest risk for delayed healing due to limited vascularity of the site.
