Unlike conventional crossed K-wire pinning, this method avoids crossing the physis with the pins and thus minimizes the risk of physeal damage. None of the children had fracture re-displacement, angulation or growth deformities. The age, sex, side of injury, fracture displacement or angulation, treatment delay or immobilization period had any significant impact on the functional outcome. At a mean follow-up of 49\u00a0months (range 47\u201360), plain radiographs and MRI showed no growth arrests or physeal bars or bridges. Grip strength, wrist motion and patient-reported outcomes were almost normal with no or minimal pain at the injury site. We conclude that intrafocal K-wire pinning is simple, safe and affordable. We cannot provide data on what is acceptable fracture displacement for different age groups to allow for acceptable final remodelling of any malalignment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Level of evidence: IV<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1753193420953078","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,10]],"date-time":"2020-09-10T12:52:54Z","timestamp":1599742374000},"page":"471-475","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Salter-Harris II distal radial fractures treated with the intrafocal K-wire technique: a retrospective study of 20 cases"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"46","author":[{"given":"J.
