Abstrakt: Case: A 14-year-old skeletally immature boy sustained a lateral split depression tibial plateau fracture without extension through the physis. He underwent open reduction internal fixation with all-epiphyseal instrumentation. Conclusion: Tibial plateau fractures that spare the physis are rare injuries, with no reports previously in the literature of operative treatment without physeal arrest. Careful all-epiphyseal reduction and fixation is a viable option with good-toexcellent outcomes and return to sporting activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
