What Causes A Healed Fracture On One Rib Alone?

if a baby has one healed fracture on 7th rib and no other. What in the world could it be from. they thought they saw more and then did and tissue and bone scan and saw only the one. now want to do another xray kind that was wrong the first time and made them do so many more tests. Ruling out abuse because there was none. What could cause this and why would they want to do the same xray over?
