Examples of two different types of rib fractures. The top row shows non-severe fractures, while the bottom row shows severe fractures. (a) Mild fracture with cortical distortion, where the outer layer of the rib is slightly disrupted but remains mostly intact. (b) Mild fracture with misalignment or displacement, but the displacement distance is less than the rib’s diameter. (c) Severe comminuted fracture, with the rib broken into multiple fragments. (d) Severe fracture with significant displacement, where the displacement distance exceeds the rib’s diameter
