Abstract

Growth cartilage is a pivotal area between the epiphysis and the metaphysis, with relative fragility. She was incarcerated for soft tissue during a Salter-Harris type I epiphysic detachment in a 13-year-old girl. Such a lesion can be easily obscured with irreversible after-effects.


Very few cases of incarceration of soft tissue in growth cartilage, have been described in the literature. We present in this study, a case of tissue incarceration in growth cartilage discovered incidentally during the realization magnetic resonance imaging with study of the literature review.
