Adolescent Bone Injury• Salter Harris Fx
– I-V: Determines the likelihood of growth interruption
• I. Pure physeal separation If non-displaced, jt effusion may be
only sign • II. Metaphyseal fracture + physeal separation • III. Epiphyseal fracture + physeal separation • IV. Fx through epiphysis + metaphysis • V. Crush injury of physis (not detected acutely)
– Know when the growth plates close. Don’t want to miss Fx!
