Pathophysiology of epiphyseal fractures
Across
- 3. Process whereby hard callus forms into mature bones restoring it's original shape and strength
- 8. A fracture through the growth plate, metaphysis, and epiphysis.
- 9. discs of hyaline cartilage between the metphysis and epiphysis
- 10. Process whereby the cartilgionous models of bones in the developing lower limb are transformed into bone
Down
- 1. One of the most widely used classifications for fractures
- 2. after the injury, blood vessels rupture causing a hematoma providing a foundation for healing
- 4. A compression fracture of the growth plate, resulting in a decrease in space between the epiphysis and metaphysis on imaging studies.
- 5. most common site of fractures
- 6. A fracture through the growth plate and metaphysis, sparing the epiphysis.
- 7. complication where the bone heals incorrectly, leading to deformity.
- 8. A fracture through the growth plate and epiphysis, sparing the metaphysis.
- 11. A transverse fracture through the growth plate, separating the epiphysis from the metaphysis
