Epiphyseal injuries present a special challenge to the sports medicine professional Salter-Harris Type III fractures involving the physis, epiphysis, and articular surface are uncommon (1). Because of the proximity of this fracture site to the knee joint, it is especially important that the clinician be aware of this type of injury when working with the adolescent athlete. This case adds to others previously reported in the English literature.

Fractures of the proximal end of the radius in children are uncommon. A case of fracture through the articular surface of the radial head (Salter–Harris type IV) in a 12-year-old boy is presented. Our paper recommends bone peg fixation in the treatment of Salter–Harris (S–H) type III or IV injuries in nearly skeletally mature.
