Salter Harris Classification • Tip1: The epiphysis is completely separated from the end of the bone. • Tip2: The epiphysis, together with the growth plate, is partially separated from the metaphysis, which is cracked. • Tip3: fracture runs completely through the epiphysis and separates part of the epiphysis and growth plate from the metaphysis. • Tip4: This fracture runs through the epiphysis, across the growth plate, and into the metaphysis. • Tip5:The growth plate is compressed.
Indications for Open Reduction • Open fractures • Inability to maintain acceptable reduction • Multiple trauma • Elastic nail fixation can often be accomplished with little soft tissue disruption
