Avulsion in general refers to a tearing away. Specifically, it can refer to:
- Avulsion fracture, when a fragment of bone tears away from the main mass of bone as a result of physical trauma.
- Avulsion injury, in which a body structure is detached from its normal point of insertion, either torn away by trauma or cut by surgery.[1]
