On examination, she is crying but consolable in her mother’s arms. She has bruising and swelling just proximal to the left ankle. An x-ray reveals a spiral fracture of the tibia. At this time, you advise the mother that:

You are going to report this to child protective services as suspected abuse.
You are going to refer the child for a bone biopsy because this is a pathologic fracture that may represent a neoplasm.
This is a common fracture resulting from twisting on a planted foot.
You should draw blood to evaluate for sickle cell disease, which may cause infarction of the bone.
