Stress fractures2
  • The climbing community started reporting epiphyseal stress fractures in the fingers in 1997. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • Dr. Rhonda Watkins presents "Common Overuse Injuries in Running Athletes (Patellofemoral Pain, IT Band Friction, Shin Splints, Stress Fractures)" at the UCSF Pediatric Musculoskeletal and Sports Medicine Conference 2023 in Berkeley, CA. (ucsfbenioffchildrens.org)
Epiphyseal7
  • The epiphyseal complex, including the epiphysis, physis, and metaphysis is very susceptible to injury in children because the ligamentous and capsular structures around a joint are 2-5 times stronger than the most vulnerable part of the growth plate. (virtualpediatrichospital.org)
  • Approximately 10% of all fractures in kids involve the epiphyseal complex. (virtualpediatrichospital.org)
  • High incidence of epiphyseal fractures in the age group 13 to 15. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • Examined are growth factors, growth spurts and onset of epiphyseal fractures. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • While campus board exercises are known to be one risk factor for epiphyseal fractures in young climbers, others still need to be detected. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • Within the short period of time (24 years) a total of 65 epiphyseal fractures of the fingers have been reported in climbers representing the highest rate of this injury so far in any sport. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • Especially those aged 13-15 (around category Youth B), which is a vulnerable age for epiphyseal fractures. (ifsc-climbing.org)
Epiphysis1
  • Most often they were fractures of the Salter Harris III type with a fracture through the epiphysis of the middle phalanx. (ifsc-climbing.org)
Incidence1
Athletic activity1
Athletes1
  • Growth related and overuse injuries are most often associated with young athletes and sports related activities. (calgaryyouthphysio.com)
Injuries7
  • All subjects were within a year of the first signs of puberty and within their pubertal growth spurt, a time when the growth plate is especially vulnerable for injuries. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • Because they are still growing, they are vulnerable to unique kinds of sport injuries, that can limit participation and affect long term development and musculoskeletal growth. (calgaryyouthphysio.com)
  • Growth and overuse injuries affect ligaments, tendons, bones and growth plates. (calgaryyouthphysio.com)
  • Consequently, such injuries can lead to long-term problems and impaired growth if left untreated. (calgaryyouthphysio.com)
  • Common growth and overuse related injuries include: Apophyseal pain, Osgood-Schlatter's Disease, Sever's Disease, Little Leaguer's Elbow, Growth Plate injuries (Gymnast's Wrist), Jumper's Knee (patellar tendonitis), Achilles tendonitis, Plantar fasciitis, Patellar Femoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS). (calgaryyouthphysio.com)
  • Your child may be vulnerable to some of these unique injuries. (calgaryyouthphysio.com)
  • Our physiotherapy team is well versed in youth growth and overuse injuries. (calgaryyouthphysio.com)
Type1
  • The prognosis and rate of complications such as limb deformity and limb shortening depend on the fracture type with higher Salter Harris fracture types having a worse prognosis. (virtualpediatrichospital.org)
Risk2
  • Conclusion: During certain growth spurts growth plates are at risk. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • The main concern is the risk of growth disturbance. (ortopaedi.dk)
Children1
  • We report two cases, both children, who presented to fracture clinic with a dislocated thumb over one week after initial injury. (jocr.co.in)
Years1
  • They were in average 14.1 years of age and all within the year of their peak velocity growth. (ifsc-climbing.org)
Joint2
  • As a consequence of repetitive loading of the fingers the fractures observed were always in the proximal interphalangeal joint. (ifsc-climbing.org)
  • In both cases the volar plate was found to be interposed within the joint blocking reduction. (jocr.co.in)
