Epiphyseal fractures account for about one fifth of pediatric fractures. Approximately 10% cause major growth disturbances, depending on the location and type of the fracture and the skeletal maturity of the child. Intra-articular Salter-Harris type IV fractures are rare, carry a poor prognosis, and almost always need surgical reduction to prevent deformity. We present a case report of a pediatric patient who returned to normal function after the successful surgical reduction of a Salter-Harris type IV fracture in the proximal phalanx of the great toe.

ABSTRACT Irreducible dislocation of interphalangeal joint is a rare condition with only a few case reports in literature. Here, we report a case with irreducible dislocation of interphalangeal joint due to sesamoid bone interposition, which required open reduction. A 45-year-old male had a fall from height with irreducible dislocation of interphalangeal joint of great toe. Intraoperatively, the interposition of sesamoid bone over the dorsal aspect of proximal phalanx was identified. Displaced volar plate with sesamoid bone was reduced into the position, and the joint was stabilized with k wire. On follow-up, we observed that the patient had no discomfort or pain for 6 months. The displacement of sesamoid bone with volar plate and intact collateral ligaments locks the joint in extension and obstructs the reduction of interphalangeal joint dislocation. One should have the suspicion of possibility of open reduction after observing the interposition of sesamoid bone over the dorsal aspect of the proximal phalanx. Dorsal approach is usually advocated; medial approach can be used if there is wound over the plantar aspect. How to cite this article Silvampatti S, Rajasekaran S.

Repetitive Stress

Chronic physeal stress injuries in children can result from ongoing, repetitive compression, distraction and/or shear forces during sports-related activity, and manifest as physeal widening on imaging. We present an 11-year-old soccer athlete with focal physeal widening of her great toe metatarsal and postulate that ongoing or repetitive stress from soccer play may manifest as this imaging appearance. We suggest that recognition of this entity in growing children might explain pain, if present, and guide conservative treatment.
