  • Title: Birth injuries to the epiphyseal cartilage.
    Author: Ekengren K, Bergdahl S, Ekström G.
    Journal: Acta Radiol Diagn (Stockh); 1978; 19(1B):197-204. PubMed ID: 654945.
    Abstract:
    A birth injury in the vicinity of a joint might lead to a fracture through the epiphyseal cartilage. The criteria for diagnosing such a fracture at radiography are considered and the continued remodelling of the bone demonstrated. The history of 2 cases with late diagnosis and serious long-term sequelae are described, in order to emphasize the necessity of early radiography.
