PubMed (MEDLINE), Scopus and Google Scholar were searched. Data were extracted using the CARE framework to ensure consistency in documenting clinical findings, imaging, management and safeguarding. Themes were organised around diagnosis, imaging, treatment approaches and growth considerations.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fifty fractures were identified, with a slight male predominance. Falls were the main cause in older infants, while traumatic delivery predominated in neonates. Among 53 fractures with a documented site, symphyseal\/parasymphyseal fractures were most frequent (62.3%). Of 36 cases with reported management, 75% were managed conservatively and 25% surgically. Over 90% of cases with follow\u2010up demonstrated normal growth. Safeguarding procedures were documented in 30.7% of reports.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Favourable outcomes depend on preserving periosteal integrity, supporting function and performing safeguarding assessments when indicated.
