  • Title: Atypical growth plate closure: a possible chronic Salter and Harris Type V injury.
    Author: Sato T, Shinozaki T, Fukuda T, Watanabe H, Aoki J, Yanagawa T, Takagishi K.
    Journal: J Pediatr Orthop B; 2002 Apr; 11(2):155-8. PubMed ID: 11943991.
    Abstract:
    Salter-Harris Type V epiphyseal injury is relatively uncommon. The authors present a case involving the proximal tibia diagnosed both by radiologic and histologic findings. The findings suggest that Salter-Harris Type V injury can be a possible outcome when the disappearance of the physeal plate is reported in a patient who has great physical activity in childhood, even if the patient has suffered from no major injury.
