Complications of locking plate fixation in complex proximal tibia injuries.

abstract：:This report presents a case demonstrating the nonunion of a capital femoral physeal fracture with a large metaphyseal fragment in a 10-year-old boy. To our knowledge, there is no previously reported case of this type of nonunion. The treatment of this nonunion presented a potential risk of premature physeal closure an...
