Although several studies have studied the predictive nature of non-accidental trauma of the different types of fractures and in particular on the femur, the physiological and radiological particularities of the child make it difficult to estimate the age of a fracture and require defining a chronology specific to the specificities of the pediatric population. Some authors have carried out work for the dating of fractures, however the number of cases or the average age of the subjects does not allow a precise estimation of the chronology of evolution of the fractures.
