AbstractKnee injuries commonly occur in children and adolescents who participate in athletic activities. Open growth plates, apophyses, and chondroepiphyses are unique to the skeletally immature knee and account for the differences in injury patterns observed in children and adults. An understanding of anatomy and classification as related to treatment and outcome of fractures in the skeletally immature knee is important.
