[Echography in injuries of costal cartilages].

Interest of high frequency ultrasonography in rib cartilage cannot be recognised by conventional X ray films: authors show the interest of high frequency ultra sonography when the trauma is known, finding a localised tumefaction, sometimes a rib cartilage fracture. When the traumatism in unknown, ultra sonography can correct the diagnosis.
