Proximal tibia, epiphysiolysis, Kirschner wires, vascular injury, compartment syndromeAbstract
Epiphysiolysis of the proximal tibia is a rare injury due to the surrounding structures that protect the area. In displaced fractures, the evaluation of vascular structures is mandatory to detect injury to the popliteal artery or the presence of compartment syndrome. We present a Salter & Harris type I epiphyseal injury of the proximal tibia in a 10-year-old boy.
