Physeal fractures of the distal femoral are rare injuries accounting for less than 2% of all physeal injuries, and tend to have a worse prognosis than similar injuries in other locations. FIGURE 16-7 Peterson classification of proximal radius physeal fractures in children. Peterson CA, Peterson HA. Peterson HA: Epiphyseal growth plate fractures. Classification. Their goals are to (1) facilitate com-munication, (2) predict the risk of growth disturbance, and (3) deter-mine treatment. Classification for pediatric physeal fractures was proposed by Salter and Harris (SH) in 1963 [1].The classification of physeal plate injuries in 5 types, proposed in their report, The better than does the adult skeleton, and tibial shaft fractures has been explored6,7. Salter-Harris type III fractures are an uncommon, intraarticular fracture physeal fractures that occur in children. II.

Epidemiology in Olmsted County, Minnesota, 1979-1988, pp. Tillaux fracture accounts for approximately 2.96.7% of the distal tibial epiphyseal fractures [1, 2].It usually occurs in adolescents when the center and medial side of the distal tibial physis have been closed and the anterolateral The other two commonly seen physeal fracture patterns not described by the Salter-Harris classification are the Peterson Type-I fracture (a fracture of the metaphysis extending into the physis) and the Peterson Type-VI fracture (a fracture with a portion of the physis missing) 18 . The most widely used classification system for physeal fractures is the Salter and Harris classification system, (Fig. Classification. Physeal injury ORTHO 97 Amputations of the Foot. Email this page; Link this page ; Print; Please describe! Classification of physeal fractures dates back to the nineteenth century. This textbook is an guished from adult orthopedics in many ways. Therefore, we conducted a literature review that resulted in 11 articles, including 32 Feb. 16, 2014. fracture is more common in younger patients with a thicker physis. Epidemiology in Olmsted County, Minnesota, Pediatr Orthop. Salter-Harris Classification. (4,5) The incidence of such fractures has been reported at a rate of 14 cases per 10,000. This type of fracture is rare. II. Nevertheless, all children who have sus-tained a physeal injury of the distal radius by high-energy trauma, or any physeal injury of the distal ulna, two or more premature closure of the entire physeal growth plate, or partial. 1 Ankle fractures account for approximately 5.5% of fractures in paediatric patients, and 15% of physeal injuries. Peterson introduced a novel classification in 1994 based on a review of 951 fractures. A Peterson Type-VI fracture is similar to a Rang Type-VI fracture. III: Fracture through part of the physis, extending thru the epiphysis into the joint. Epiphyseal Growth Plate Fractures.
The Salter Harris classification system describes fractures that involve the growth plate, or epiphyseal plate. Types II
The purpose of this study is to establish and describe the complications caused by hip dislocations associated with transphyseal femoral neck fractures. Front Matter. Classifications In Brief: Salter-Harris Classification of Pediatric Physeal Fractures. Injury. FIGURE 16-7 Peterson classification of proximal radius physeal fractures in children. The most widely used classification for physeal fractures was developed by Salter and Harris in 1963. 1 The unique anatomy of the skeletally immature ankle (strong ligamentous attachments distal to the Classification. rsal. Pages 21-91. Neer and Horwitz reported an incidence of 0.8% of 2500 consecutive epiphyseal fractures. The mean age at injury for pressure physeal fractures (5.2 months) was significantly less (p < .05) than for traction Type II is the most common Salter-Harris fracture (Peterson et al. Partial physeal arrests can further be classified based on their anatomical location 4: CAS Article Google Scholar Peterson HA (1994) Physeal fractures: Part 2. In 1898, Poland apud Peterson [8] and Bright [9], describes that the physeal fractures were common entities and not rare ones, describing the first true injuries classification, based upon radiographic images. All children in Olmsted County, Minnesota, who had a physeal fracture in the 10-year period 1979 through 1988 were identified in this population based study. ORTHO 95 Forearm amputation. Classification Watson Jones Tubercle only A- Undisplaced B- Displaced Tubercle & extra-articular Introduction. Fractures of the proximal tibial epiphysis. trochanteric flip osteotomy performed. Fractures with physeal involvement are conventionally classified according to the SalterHarris classification, but the Peterson classification is also recommended as it M, metaphyseal (neck) fracture. J Pediatr Orthop 14:439448. Ogden created more types and subtypes of injury patterns presenting a more extensive classification scheme, while Peterson described two new types of physeal fractures [10, 21]. Plain radiographs will usually suffice to demonstrate fractures of the physis. The biomechanical differences between mature and Proximal tibial physeal fractures are relatively rare lesions, representing less than 1 per cent of all physeal injuries [1-4]. This study aimed to characterize physeal fractures with respect to sex, age, anatomic location, and Salter–Harris (SH) classification from a current multicenter national database. 423-30), a new classification was constructed. Among the most suitable classification schemes are those Treatment S Reduce displaced physeal fractures with gentle traction and manipulation. Injuries to the physis can cause cessation of growth and resultant angular deformities. rather than fracture type; 17 Be Wary of Fixation only in Thurston-Holland Fragment Loss of reduction at 2 weeks 18 Distal Femoral Physeal Fractures. 22-24 Fractures of the lateral condyle are most common, accounting for >54% of fractures. Fractures of the proximal tibial epiphysis. The age at time of injury was 10.4 years of age average (range 315 years). long bones involved in Salter-Harris fractures, the physeal injury classification system. Classification a. The overall age- and sex-adjusted incidence of physeal fractures was 279.2 per 100,000 person-years (95% confidence interval, 261.4-296.9). Many of these fractures are treated symptom-atically by family or primary care physicians.They are rarely referred to an orthopedic center where they might be included in series reports. 2 Fracture separation of distal femoral epiphysis has a bimodal frequency distribution; one at Salter-Harris type II fractures are the most common type of physeal fractures that occur in children. V: Compression fracture at the growth plate. Download to read offline. Analysis of the incidence of injuries to the epiphyseal growth plate. Watson-Jones classification.
There are several classification systems, including those of Aitken, Salter and Harris, and Peterson. Each new classification has made Peterson classification type VI, which has been reported newly on physeal injury classification, is defined as partial missing of the metaphysis and epiphysis with a portion of the physis. Types II to V are the equivalents of Salter-Harris types I, II, The Salter-Harris classification scheme is designed to stratify injuries according to their relative risk of growth disturbance 4 (Figure 3). Fractures with physeal involvement are typically classified according to the SalterHarris classification system, which is the most widely used . In 1994, Peterson with his classification added two new physeal fracture types. Traumatic hip dislocation might lead to serious complications and a poor outcome. Peterson HA, Madhok R, Benson JT, Ilstrup DM, Melton LJ. It is the least common physeal fracture, but has the highest rate of complications, particularly the formation of a physeal bar [2, 3]. However, recently the use of this classification has been found to be significant in predicting the incidence of early physeal arrest following fractures of the distal forearm bones. Classification. Medial Clavicle Physeal Fracture Clavicle Shaft Fracture - Pediatric Southwick Slip Angle Classification. Pages 93-115. This is a review of 116 children who had a fracture of the proximal radial head or neck over a 15-year period. The recommended time after injury at which one can attempt a reduction of a displaced physeal fracture varies from 5 to 10 days, with a few recommending attempting treatment of Salter 1 or About 60% of physeal ankle fractures occur during sports activities and are more common in boys than girls [2,3]. All children in Olmsted County, Minnesota, who had a physeal fracture in the 10-year period 1979 through 1988 were identified in this population based study. Classification of Growth Plate Fractures. Physeal Fractures: Anatomic Sites. Prognosis. Physeal fractures of the distal tibia and fibula are more common in boys than in girls and occur most frequently between 10 and 15 years of age. Salter-Harris Classification 1994; Eastwood and de Geldere 2011). 1). Type V is a compression fracture through the physis that happens when the end of the bone is crushed, and the physis is compressed. Classification. A systematic review of the literature on the frequency and characteristics of sports related growth plate injuries affecting children and youth in organised sport was carried out. It has not been reported in the Republic of Korea to our knowledge. No large series of type 6 physeal injuries has been described in the literature.
Physeal fractures are classified using Salter-Harris I-V. Each subsequent number indicates a It is often presumed that regardless of the implant the physis may close as a result of the inciting or surgical trauma. This classification includes two new fractures (see Physeal Fractures: Part 2.
1. Clin Orthop Relat Res. 14 439-448 7 Peterson HA, Jacobsen FS. Both acute and chronic physeal injuries related to participation in sports have been reported to occur, although injury incidence data are somewhat limited. IV: Fracture through the metaphysis, physis and epiphysis into the joint. Buy Physeal Fractures: Part 3. Physeal fractures occur in immature animals with open physes, usually secondary to trauma, though this may be minimal depending on the affected location. Salter Harris Type 5 Fracture.

Salter Harris Classification I II III IV V . Salter-Harris classification of epiphyseal plate fractures is not closely correlated with clinical outcome. The Salter-Harris classification of physeal fractures is most often used . Salter-Harris type III fractures of the distal femur: plain radiographs can be deceptive. The Salter-Harris classification system is used most frequently secondary to the ease of application and relevance to the treatment and prognosis of pediatric fractures. PHYSEAL INJURIES Dr . PubMed CAS Google Scholar Peterson HA, Madhok R, Benson JT, Ilstrup DM, Melton III LJ: Physeal fractures: Part 1, Epidemiology in Olmsted County, Minnesota, 19791988. Results : Ninety-six physeal injuries could not be classified using the classification schemes of Ogden and Peterson. Peterson. [3] proposed a classification that included two new physeal fracture types and injuries of the Salter-Harris system under different enumeration. in their study on tibial physeal fractures noted that in extension Peterson HA. Over the past 100 years, several attempts to classify physeal fractures have been made. We hypothesized that follow-up radiographs are unnecessary to monitor union of physeal fractures of the distal tibia.Patients and methods - All 224 (147 boys) children under 16 years old treated for a physeal fracture of the distal tibia during a 5-year The Salter-Harris (SH) classification system is used for fractures involving the growth plate (physis) in children. The most common site was the phalanges of fingers, which accounted for 37% of all physeal fractures. Pages 117-130. Barr, RJ, Stewart, A, Torgerson, DJ, et al. A 4-year-old girl was hit by car, as a pedestrian, and sustained a right distal fracture of the femur. Physeal fractures of the distal tibia represent around 5% of all fractures and 1520% of physeal fractures in children (Peterson and Peterson 1972, Landin 1983).Appropriate treatment depends on fracture type and displacement, as well as on the age of the child (Cummings 2001, Leary et al. Distal radius fractures are one of the most common human osseous injuries, with incidence rates increasing worldwide [1,2,3,4,5,6].There are two peaks of prevalence: the first around the 10th and the second around the 60th year of life [].During childhood, they are among the most common pediatric fractures [] accounting for 19.9 to 35.8% of all pediatric fractures Salter-Harris type II fractures. closed reduction and pinning for displaced fractures ; long leg cast; 19 Distal Femoral Physeal Fractures. Although there are similarities to the SalterHarris scheme, two previously J Bone Joint Surg. S Compressive fixation parallel to the physis. Background and purpose - Unnecessary radiographic and clinical follow-ups are common in treatment of pediatric fractures. Peterson CA, Peterson HA. M, metaphyseal (neck) fracture. Salter-Harris classification of physeal fractures has been expanded to six types Ogden (J Ped Orthop; 1982) from his series of 443 physeal fractures has added another three. This textbook is an guished from adult orthopedics in
Fracture through part of the physis, extending through the metaphysis. Classification. Peterson classification is also recommended (3, 22), which includes special subgroups that include metaphyseal fractures that indirectly reach the physis . 4) which divides the physeal injuries into five types. 1. Salter-Harris Type II (Figs. Growth plate (physeal) fracture 1. The Salter-Harris (SH) classification is the most commonly used system to describe physeal fracture (Fig. Salter Harris Type I
Read PDF Epiphyseal Growth Plate Fractures By Hamlet A Peterson 2007 03 22 outer bone of the forearm (radius) and lower bones of the leg (the tibia and fibula). The fracture line is often obliquely orientated through the epiphysis to the physis where it will take a horizontal orientation extending to the edge of the physis. Complications. Physeal fractures: part 1. 9 In 1994, Peterson defined a new classification by adding two new types of physeal fractures (Peterson types I and VI) to the SH classification. Pages 145-198.
Pages 141-144. J Bone Joint Surg Am 1979; 61(7): 996-1002. Peterson's classification was based on the degree of damage to the physeal plate and included six types (least damage to greatest Peterson Hamlet A.; Burkhart, Stephen S.

S Most physeal fractures have significant healing within 3 weeks. "It is my pleasure to bring your attention to Dr. Hamlet Petersons Epiphyseal Growth Plate Fractures.
Peterson presented a new classification system based on an epidemiological study of 951 physeal fractures. S Closed reduction should not be attempted >7 days after injury unless intra-articular step-off >2mm. Management of distal tibial medial malleolus type-6 physeal fractures Management of distal tibial medial malleolus type-6 physeal fractures Peterson, Hamlet; Jacobsen, F. 2008-02-28 00:00:00 Purpose Type 6 is an open fracture in which part of the Type 6 is a fracture in which part of the physis is missing [1 physis is missing. In an epidemiological study of physeal injuries, Peterson maintains SalterHarris I to IV as Peterson II to V and further supplements two more types: Peterson I Metaphyseal J Orthop Trauma 2007; 21:S135. 22 Physeal fractures are also common in children and adolescents, with the majority of injuries occurring between 4 and 8 years of age, when epiphyses are not well ossified. The fracture goes across the physis and into the metaphysis Fracture types 1 through 6, all of which involve the Oct;2(4):371-7. A knowledge of common pediatric ankle fracture patterns and the pitfalls associated with their evaluation and treatment will aid the clinician in the effective management of these injuries. Evaluation. JBJS 1979;61:996-1002. The distinctions between the different types are significant as it impacts treatment and prognosis of the injury. Peterson HA. ORTHO 91 Osgood-Schlatter Condition. Pt jumped from a second story balcony after watching Superman and convincing himself that he could fly. 2005; 76: 2438.CrossRef Google Scholar PubMed Therefore, this study focused on whether the classification systems of Ogden and Peterson could include all physeal fractures of the distal radius that were not included in the Transcript. Pricing. While fractures involving the tibia and fibula are the most common lower extremity pediatric fractures, those involving separation of the proximal tibial epiphysis are among the most uncommon but have the highest rate of complication. 11 YOM presents with L ankle pain. Beaty JH. ORTHO 96 Body-Powered and Myoelectric Prosthesis. Peterson classification:- Type 1 (transverse fracture of the metaphysis with fracture line extending to the physis) Type 2 to 5 is similar to Salter & Harris classification. Fracture types 1 through 6, all of which involve the Previous studies have reported that physeal fractures make up 18–30% of total fractures. In 1994, Peterson expanded the classification of fractures based on a large epidemiologic assessment of physeal injuries Physeal fractures: Part 3. Classification of Growth Plate Fractures. Fractures with physeal involvement are conventionally classified according to the SalterHarris classification, but the Peterson classification is also recommended as it includes special subgroups. Physeal fractures: Part 3. Physeal Fractures 1. Classification of proximal tibial fractures in children. Peterson Classification of Physeal Fractures His classification retained Salter-Harris types I through IV as Peterson types II, III, IV, and V and added two new types It is important to be Nakai S, Ikeda M, Hamawaki JI: Isolated Salter-Harris type III physeal fracture of the distal ulna. According to Peterson, physeal injuries of the distal tibia and fibula account for 25% of all physeal fractures [1]. Poland (see Classification of Physeal Fractures) which they postulated was an unrecognized compression injury characterized by normal radiographs and late physeal There are a number of different classification methods of physeal injury including Aiken, Ogden, Weber, and Salter-Harris classification systems. physeal injuries of the distal radius is low (<5%) and routine follow-up is not necessary in most SH type 12 (Peterson 13) fractures (4). 411 Phalanges of the Foot Phalangeal fractures of the toes are common in chil-dren. moderate SCFE deformity. Fracture and dislocation classification compendium for children: the AO pediatric comprehensive classification of long bone fractures (PCCF). The tibia, fibula, and wider distal metaphyseal region of a childs ankle have a series of unique compositional and physiological characteristics associated with developing bone tissue that result in specific morphological fractures patterns. The higher the classification, the more likely is physeal arrest or joint incongruity to occur. A Peterson Type I fracture is transmetaphyseal with extension into the physis, Classification. Lippert WC, Owens RF, Wall EJ. The purpose of this study was to assess the significance of contributing factors to physeal bar A growth plate injury is a fracture of the physis, an area of supple, delicate tissue found near each end of the long bones in a growing child. The fractures in adolescents, and the feasibility (peak height velocity), and a decelera- immature skeleton dissipates energy of using humeral nails for femoral and tion phase (for one to two years). 2002; 22 710-716 28 Peterson H A.
