  • Title: Knee injuries in young athletes.
    Author: Smith AD, Tao SS.
    Journal: Clin Sports Med; 1995 Jul; 14(3):629-50. PubMed ID: 7553925.
    Abstract:
    The differential diagnosis of children's knee injuries includes not only the typical adult injuries to bone, ligament, and cartilage, but also growth plate injuries. Bony contours are not as well defined in children due to incomplete ossification, and the practitioner must look for certain types of injuries based on the history and the physical findings because radiographic signs may be difficult or impossible to see.
