Abstract

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.
