Front (Term) |
Fracture of the epiphysis of the bone is completely separated from the metaphysis. |
|
|
Front (Term) |
This fracture involves the partial separation of the epiphysis and physis from the metaphysis. The metaphysis is cracked. Usually has to be reduced and immobilized. |
|
|
Front (Term) |
Fracture extends through the epiphysis and separates a portion of the epiphysis and physis from the metaphysis. Very rare. |
|
|
Front (Term) |
Fracture that extends across the physis, into the metaphysis If alignment is not fixed in surgery, growth will be affected. |
|
|
Front (Term) |
Fracture resulting in crushing of the bone and compression of the physis |
|
|
Peterson classification for growth plate fractures |
Extension of the Salter-Harris classification of growth plate fractures. It adds a type six classification where the epiphysis, physis and metaphysis are removed from the site. An open wound or compound fracture is usually associated with this. |
|
|
Le Fort fracture I |
Transverse segmented fracture through the alveolar process of the maxilla. The detached portion of bone usually holds the teeth. |
|
|
Le Fort fracture II |
Bilateral or unilateral fracture of the maxilla. A pyramid shaped section of the body of the maxilla is separated from the rest of the facial skeleton. |
|
|
Le Fort fracture III |
Involves the complete separation of the maxilla, and/or more facial bones from the rest of the facial skeleton. |
|
|
Schatzker Type 1 |
Involve a split in the lateral plateau |
|
|
Schatzker type 2 |
Split fracture with an accompanying depression of the lateral articular surface |
|
|
Schatzker type 3 |
Involves a depression of the lateral tibial plateau |
|
|
Schatzker type 4 |
Found in the medial tibial plateau. These may be split fractures with her without an associated depression fracture |
|
|
Schatzker type 5 |
Involves splits to the medial plateau and the lateral plateau |
|
|
Schatzker type 6 |
This fracture is the most severe. Involves a dissociation of the tibial plateau and diaphysis. |
|
|
Pipkin type 1 |
Fracture of the head of the femur inferior to the fovea centralis with an associated posterior dislocation |
|
|
Pipkin type 2 |
Fracture of femoral head superior to the fovea centralis with an associated posterior dislocation |
|
|
Pipkin type 3 |
Is a type 1 or type 2 with an associated fracture of the femoral neck |
|
|
Pipkin type 4 |
Is a type one, type two or type three with an associated fracture of the acetabulum |
|
|
Garden 1 |
Incomplete fracture of the femoral neck |
|
|
Garden 2 |
Complete fracture of the femoral neck but is nondisplaced |
|
|
Garden 3 |
Complete fracture of the femoral neck with partial displacement |
|
|
Garden 4 |
Complete fracture of the femoral neck with complete displacement. Unstable. |
|
|
Gustilo and Anderson type 1 |
Fracture with an open wound of less than 1 cm with little damage to the muscle |
|
|
Gustilo and Anderson type 2 |
Fracture with a wound greater than 1 cm in length with soft tissue damage |
|
|
Gustilo and Anderson type 3a |
Fracture with a wound greater than 1 cm in size involving extensive tissue damage. Adequate soft tissue coverage. |
|
|
Gustilo and Anderson type 3b |
Fracture with a wound greater than 1 cm in size involving extensive tissue damage. Inadequate soft tissue cover with bone exposure. |
|
|
Gustilo and Anderson type 3c |
Fracture with a wound greater than 1 cm in size involving extensive tissue damage. Involves damage to an artery. |
|
|
Danis-Weber classification Type A |
Fracture is below the syndesmosis |
|
|
Danis-Weber Type B |
Fractures at the joint, level with syndesmosis and the ligaments are usually not torn |
|
|
Danis-Weber Type C |
Fracture above the syndesmosis and may be associated with the tear of the deltoid ligament, and avulsion fracture of the tibia and fractures of the malleolus |
|
|
Meyerding grade 1 |
0 to 25% |
Severity of the vertebral slip of spondylolisthesis |
|
Meyerding grade 2 |
25 to 50% |
Severity of the vertebral slip of spondylolisthesis |
|
Meyerding grade 3 |
50 to 75% |
Severity of the vertebral slip of spondylolisthesis |
|
Meyerding grade 4 |
75 to 100%. A ranking of 100% means the upper vertebra slides off the lower vertebra completely |
Severity of the vertebral slip of spondylolisthesis |
|
