    This document discusses fractures that are common in children. It describes torus or buckling fractures, greenstick fractures, bowing fractures, and epiphyseal fractures. It then provides examples of specific fractures like Salter-Harris fractures, supracondylar fractures, and slipped capital femoral epiphysis fractures. X-rays are shown illustrating different types of pediatric fractures.
