  3. CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS ARE NOT “LITTLE ADULTS”

  4. Participation In Sports • 35 million participants between ages 6-21 in organized nonscholastic sports • 6-8 million participate in organized scholastic sports (ages 6-21) • Unknown number playing unorganized sports for fun and exercise

  5. Injuries In Sports* • 1/3 of all childhood injuries are sports related • Estimated 3.5 million injuries/year • Most common injuries are sprains and strains *National SAFE KIDS Campaign & American Academy of Pediatrics

  6. Benefits Of Sport Participation • Fun (most important) • Attain self-confidence & personal satisfaction • Socialize and be with friends • Excessive energy outlet • Helps develop lifelong fitness patterns • Learning teamwork & fair play

  7. Uniqueness Of The Immature Musculoskeletal System • Open growth plates- provides growth • Thicker periosteum- more vascular, faster healing • Long bones more porous- buckle fx’s common • Long bones can absorb more energy- can bend but may not break

  8. Uniqueness Of The Immature Musculoskeletal System • Different injury patterns at different ages- depends on strength of adjacent structures • Thicker articular cartilage-children and adolescents can develop chrondral or osteochondral fragmentation from overuse

  9. Uniqueness Of The Immature Musculoskeletal System • Greater vascularity of menisci of the knee (better healing potential) • Increased ability to remodel fractures • The younger the better • The closer to the physis the better • Best when fractures are in the plane of motion

  10. Skeletal injuriesSoft tissues Epiphyseal Muscles Apophyseal Tendons Pediatric And Adolescent Injury Patterns

  11. Anatomy Of Pediatric Bone • Epiphysis • Physis (Epiphyseal plate) • Metaphysis • Diaphysis

  12. Age Of Physeal Closure • Average age of physeal closure • Girls • Bone age of 14.5* • Boys • Bone age of 16.5* *It may not be chronological age

  13. Age Of Physeal Closure Estimated age of closure • Medial clavicle (25) • Prox. humerus (18-21) • Distal radius (17-19) • Prox. femur (16-18) • Distal femur (16-19) • Prox. tibia (16-20) • Distal tibia (17-18)

  14. Physeal Injury Rates Facts • Physis is the weakest area of bone • Ligaments are 300% stronger than the physeal area in the Tanner stage 3 child • Different injury patterns and locations based on age of the child

  16. Salter Harris Fracture Classification

  17. Salter I Fracture • Injury through the physis • Easily reducible (when needed) • More common in younger children • Commonly found in birth related injuries

  18. Salter II Fracture • Most common type • Fracture line extends thru the physis with a small fragment of triangular metaphyseal bone that is accompanying the epiphyseal fragment • Frequently in children ages greater than 10

  19. Salter III Fracture • Fracture line extends from the joint thru the epiphysis thru the physis and then along the physeal plate dislodging a segment of epiphysis • Usually requires anatomic reduction

  20. Salter IV Fracture • Fracture extending from the joint thru the epiphysis thru the physis then thru the adjacent metaphysis • Fracture usually migrates towards the diaphysis • Needs anatomic reduction • Increased potential for growth arrest

  21. Salter V Fracture • Severe crush injury to the physis • Potential for increase risk of growth arrest (partial or complete) • May be difficult to differentiate between Salter I and V

  22. Salter-Harris Fractures • Any Salter-Harris type fracture can cause growth arrest • Difficult to determine the amount of crush or damage to the physes at the time of the original injury • Growth arrest • Type I – least risk • Type V- highest risk • Is Type I really a Type V ?????

  23. Injuries and Conditions

  24. Pediatric And Adolescent Injuries Sprain & Strains

  25. Sprains & Strains RRest I Ice C Compress E Elevate

  26. Spine Spondylolysis Spondylolisthesis (secondary to pars interarticularis stress fracture) Pediatric And Adolescent Injuries

  27. Spondylolysis • Usually a stress fracture of the pars interarticularis • A result of axial loading of the spine in extension • Commonly at L4, L5 • Seen frequently in gymnasts and interior football lineman

  28. Spondylolysis Diagnosis • Plain radiographs • Bone scan • SPECT scan (single-photon emission computed tomograms) • MRI

  29. Spondylolysis Treatment • 1st diagnose it • Usually rest until comfortable • May need TLSO • NSAID’s • Exercises Fracture usually heals with fibrous union

  30. Spondylolisthesis • When stress fracture does not heal nor does a stable nonunion develop the fracture separates • The anterior vertebral body slides forward leaving the posterior elements in normal position [Grade I ( 25%) to Grade IV (100%)]

  31. Spondylolisthesis • This is a progression of spondylolysis • May be completely asymptomatic (incidental finding on x-ray)

  32. Spondylolisthesis Treatment Asymptomatic • Usually Grade I-II • No activity restrictions • Abdominal strengthening • Hamstring stretches • Interval X-rays to monitor for progression

  33. Spondylolisthesis Treatment Symptomatic • Usually > Grade II • Modify activities based on symptoms • Abdominal strengthening • Hamstring stretches • Antilordotic brace +/- • Surgery

  34. Pediatric And Adolescent Injuries Hip and Pelvis • Avulsions • Apophysitis • Slipped-Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) • Osteitis Pubis

  35. Apophyses • Are specialized growth centers of the immature skeleton that occur around joints. • Major muscle or muscle groups take origin or insert into these areas. • Areas prone to variety or injuries in youths participating in sports (overuse & avulsions). • Usually contributes to the size of the bone not the overall length.

  36. Apophysitis • Common disorder of the immature skeleton that represents a fatigue type fracture or strain to the attachments at the growing apophyses. • Results from a microtrauma at the musculotendinous origin or insertion site • Represents tendonitis in adults

  37. Avulsions Or Apophysitis • Iliac crest • ASIS • AIIS • Greater trochanter • Lesser trochanter • Ischium

  38. Hip And Pelvis Avulsions • Iliac Crest (Ext Oblique muscle of the abdomen) • ASIS- (Sartorius) • AIIS- (Rectus femoris) • Lesser Trochanter- (Iliopsoas) • Ischium- (Hamstrings) • Greater Trochanter- (Gluteus Medius)

  39. Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis • Most common hip disorder in adolescents • 2-10 per 100,000 • Males 2-3x more common

  40. Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis • Males 9-16 y/o • Females 8-15 y/o • Exact cause of SCFE is still unknown • Prevalence of bilateral SCFE is 21-80% • Contralateral SCFE occurs within 18 months of diagnosis of the 1st hip

  41. Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis • Red Flags for Diagnosis • Older children especially male • Obesity • Limp • Pain in thigh, groin, or knee • Onset sudden or gradual • AP & frog leg lateral X-ray is usually diagnostic

  43. Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis Treatment Surgical stabilization with cannulated screw fixation
