Distal femoral physeal fractures are not common but have a high rate of complications. They generally follow one of the patterns described in the Salter-Harris classification. We present a case of combination of Salter-Harris type III and type IV injury. Our case was a 15-year-old boy who had a motor vehicle accident. There was swelling, ecchymosis, severe pain, and valgus deformity, because of medial proximal fracture fragment, on the left knee. We deemed that Salter-Harris type III and type IV combination fracture in our case has not been previously reported. We prepared this paper in consideration of its contribution to the literature.
股骨远端骨骺骨折并不常见,但并发症发生率很高。它们通常遵循Salter-Harris分类中描述的一种模式。我们报告一例Salter-Harris III型和IV型损伤合并的病例。我们的病例是一名15岁的男孩,他遭遇了一场机动车事故。左膝因近端内侧骨折碎片出现肿胀、瘀斑、剧痛和外翻畸形。我们认为我们病例中的Salter-Harris III型和IV型合并骨折此前尚未有报道。考虑到其对文献的贡献,我们撰写了本文。
