bow fracture / bowing fracture

English to Greek Medical Medical: Health Care fractures
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenstick_fracture

Pediatric fractures can be classified as complete and incomplete:
Incomplete: there are three basic forms of incomplete fractures:
- The first is the greenstick fracture, a transverse fracture of the cortex which extends into the midportion of the bone and becomes oriented along the longitudinal axis of the bone without disrupting the opposite cortex. [=δίκην χλωρού ξύλου]
- The second form is a torus or buckling fracture, caused by impaction. They are usually the result of a force acting on the longitudinal axis of the bone: they are typically a consequence of a fall on an outstretched arm, so they mainly involve the distal radial metaphysis. The word torus is derived from the Latin word 'torus,' meaning swelling or protuberance. [=δίκην πόρπης]
- The third is a bow fracture in which the bone becomes curved along its longitudinal axis.
