Current methods to predict height potential are inaccurate. Predicting height by using MRI of the physeal cartilage has shown promise but the applicability of this technique in different imaging setups has not been well-evaluated. To assess variability in diffusion tensor imaging of the physis and metaphysis (DTI-P/M) of the distal femur between di...

Objectives: There remains considerable debate regarding the optimal management of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in skeletally immature patients. This study aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes of transphyseal ACL reconstruction in patients with open growth plates. Methods: This retrospective study included skeletally immature patients...

Division of the growing long bone into individual basic parts, that is, diaphysis, metaphysis, physes and epiphyses, has become generally accepted and used. However, the origin of these terms is almost unknown. Therefore, we have analyzed the literature in order to identify their sources. The terms epiphysis and apophysis have been used since the t...

Introduction: Gunshot injuries, while relatively uncommon in pediatric patients, can have lasting consequences, both physically and psychologically. Physeal injuries to the distal tibia are very common just second distal radius physis. Disruption of physis often leads to growth disturbances and deformities if not managed appropriately. This case re...

The incidence of paediatric fractures among winter sport athletes is not adequately studied. Our objective was to categorize fractures that occurred in paediatric skiers and snowboarders at a single ski resort. X-rays of 756 skiers/snowboarders aged 3-17 diagnosed with a fracture were categorized using the Salter-Harris (SH) classification. SH frac...

To determine the effects of acute (≤7 days) femoral head ischemia on the proximal femoral growth plate and metaphysis in a piglet model of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD). We hypothesized that qualitative and quantitative histological assessment would identify effects of ischemia on endochondral ossification. Unilateral femoral head ischemia was ...

The adductor tubercle of the distal femur is utilized by surgeons as an anatomic landmark to identify graft anchor placement during medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) and medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament (MQTFL) reconstruction for patellofemoral instability. In the skeletally immature population, its location relative to the physis has ...

Deformities of the lower limb are common in childhood; however, they are mainly variations of the natural growth pattern. The rare case showed up late with a genu valgum deformity centered on both tibias and a closed physis. Case presentation: A 20-year-old male has suffered from bilateral knee pain and genu valgum deformity centered at both tibias...

The paper is devoted to the issues of the emergence of European science and philosophy, founded by the ancient Greeks. In the period known as the First Enlightenment, there was, on the one hand, a gradual departure from the mythological explanations of the reality, and, on the other, the construction of a new way of looking at the world, known as t...

Physis is a complex cartilaginous structure that is critical for longitudinal bone growth. As one of the endocrine-disrupting chemicals, bisphenol A (BPA) can interfere with the physis by deranging the complex networks of nutritional, cellular, paracrine, and endocrine factors, and this affects longitudinal bone growth, leading to different growth ...
