Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]; Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Mohammadmain Rezazadehsaatlou[2].

Overview

Injuries leading to the bone fracture affecting the epiphyseal plate, or physis, are important and common in orthopedic medicine and the cause diagnostic and treatment challenges for orthopaedic surgeons. The related incidence rate of these fracture among pedicatric population is 15-20%.

Salter-Harris fracture classification

According to the Salter-Harris classification there are two important mnemonics helping memories this classification and use it easily in practice:

SALTR
SMACK


SALTR Mnemonic
S	slipped	Type I
A	above or away from joint	Type II
L	lower	Type III
T	through or transverse or together	Type IV
R	ruined or rammed	Type V

SMACK Mnemonic
S	slipped	Type I
M	metaphyseal	Type II
A	articular-epiphyseal	Type III
C	complete-metaphysis and epiphysis	Type IV
K	krushed	Type V
