Abstract We present a case of a Salter-Harris II injury to the proximal tibia associated with both vascular compromise and compartment syndrome. The potential complications of this injury are limb threatening and the neurovasular status of the limb should be continually monitored. Maintaining anatomic reduction is difficult and fixation may be needed to achieve optimal results. Introduction Salter-Harris injuries of the proximal tibia are rare with an incidence of 0.5 to 3 of all epiphyseal injuries 1 2 . This rarity is due to the anatomy of the proximal epiphysis the collateral ligaments insert distally into the metaphysis shielding the epiphysis. There have been limited reports of these injuries to date with the largest published series reporting 39 cases 3 . This injury is potentially limb threatening secondary to vascular compromise or .
