Growth plate fractures only occur in growing children and adolescents. These fractures occur in the physis which is the area responsible for growth. The majority of these fractures heal without any significant growth impairment. In some untreated or severe cases, the Epiphyseal circulation may be impaired which will inhibit the physeal growth which will ultimately lead to shortening and angulations of the affected limb. The prognosis depends on the site of the fracture.
