1BC Children's Hospital, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Background:
The triplane fracture, a unique transitional physeal injury, is classically described in the distal tibia. A small number of additional anatomic locations are documented in the orthopaedic literature.
Methods:
Available literature surrounding triplane fractures was reviewed. We describe a rare case of a proximal tibial triplane fracture in a thirteen-year-old girl, suffered during a skiing accident.
Results:
Using arthroscopically assisted percutaneous reduction techniques an anatomic reduction was achieved.
Conclusion:
We outline the surgical and postoperative techniques for management of this unique injury.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
