This image illustrates the Salter-Harris classification of fractures involving the growth plate (physis) in children. The types of injuries are:
Type I: Transverse fracture through the physis with possible displacement or widening.
Type II: Fracture through the physis and metaphysis, sparing the epiphysis.
Type III: Fracture through the physis and epiphysis, extending to the joint surface.
Type IV: Fracture through the metaphysis, physis, and epiphysis.
Type V: Crush injury to the physis, leading to growth arrest.
These classifications help in determining the severity and treatment plan for growth plate injuries in children.
