Separation of the proximal humeral epiphysis (SPHE) is a well-known occurrence and may occur secondary to trauma, infection, and nonaccidental trauma. Since most newborns do not have the proximal humeral epiphysis ossified at birth, the diagnosis may be difficult to make on routine radiographs. Ultrasonography of the shoulder in the newborn is rapid, noninvasive, and nonionizing imaging techniques which can diagnose SPHE. In this report, we describe and emphasize the diagnostic utility of state-of-the-art ultrasonography for the diagnosis of SPHE.
肱骨近端骨骺分离（SPHE）是一种常见的情况，可能继发于创伤、感染和非意外性创伤。由于大多数新生儿出生时肱骨近端骨骺尚未骨化，常规X线片可能难以做出诊断。新生儿肩部超声检查是一种快速、无创且非电离的成像技术，可诊断SPHE。在本报告中，我们描述并强调了先进超声检查对SPHE诊断的实用价值。
