Simini Boards Cast

Pediatric Orthopedics: What’s Different When They’re Still Growing

Simini Podcasts Season 1 Episode 30

In this episode of BoardsCast, we take a close look at what changes when the patient hasn’t finished growing — and why pediatric orthopedic injuries require a fundamentally different approach.

You’ll learn:

  • How physis function and closure timing impact treatment
  • The Salter-Harris fracture classification and growth disturbance risk
  • What to do (and what to avoid) when fixing injuries near open physes
  • The role of periosteum in pediatric healing — and remodeling potential
  • Implant selection and positioning for growing bone
  • Board-style case reviews with growth plate complication management

This is essential for boards and real-life practice — because treating young animals like small adults can lead to big problems.
