abstract="Distal femoral physeal fractures in adolescents are often due to high velocity injuries. We present an unusual case of a non-contact distal femoral physeal fracture that occurred during a football (soccer) match. A torsional force had been directed at the fracture site occurring at the growth plate causing a transverse fracture rather than a spiral fracture. It is important to be aware that such fractures can occur despite little or no evidence of contact. These type of injuries should also be treated as an emergency to reduce the risk of further complications.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
