Hello,
I see you are asking "What is dysplasia epiphyseal hemimelica?"
Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica (DEH), also known as Trevor's disease, is a developmental bone disease of childhood. It is rare and clinical experience with this condition is limited.

"Corner Sign" occurs in a Salter Type II fracture, which is a fracture through the epiphyseal plate and metaphysis of a long bone. The fracture can separate a triangular fragment of the metaphysis, which is seen on x-ray as a small distinct wedge or "corner."
The presence of an epiphyseal plates indicates that the bone is still growing. When the bone has stopped growing, the epiphyseal plates will have fused together and are now called epiphyseal lines.An epiphyseal plate indicates that a person is still growing because its presence is only found in children. Adults have an epiphyseal line in its place. The plate indicates that mitosis is still proliferating the bone tissues.bone length is increasing

epiphyseal plate
the physis is weaker than the ligaments and will fail before the ligament does in children...similarly people with weak bones may have a fracture before the ligament tears(sprain)...ie those with OP or bone CA source: essentials of m/s care, john sarwark, md
Epiphyseal plate
epiphyseal plates
The epiphyseal plate is composed of cartilage. As the child grows, the cartilage hardens into bone. The epiphyseal plate is located at the ends of the long skeletal bones.
The layer you are referring to is the epiphyseal plate, also known as the growth plate. It is found at the ends of long bones in children and adolescents, allowing the bone to lengthen as the cartilage cells multiply and are replaced by new bone tissue. Once growth is complete, the epiphyseal plate ossifies and becomes the epiphyseal line.
The epiphyseal plate is a section of hyaline cartilage that seperates the epiphysis from the diaphysis in long bones. The growth and ossification of the epiphyseal plate is responsible for the bone growing longer. Articulate cartilage is similar, however, it is found on the outside layer of the epiphysis. It grows and resorbs allowing for the remodelling of the bone. The epiphyseal line is the remains of the epiphyseal plate once it has stopped growing.
Cartilage plate that servs as a growth area along the bone lenghing, it allows the dialysis of the bone to increase in length until early adulthood. When growth stops the epiphyseal plate is replaced with bone, then becoming the epiphseal line.
No, the epiphyseal plate is only visible in the cutaway view of a long bone in an adult. In the external view of an adult long bone, the epiphyseal plate has ossified and is no longer visible since it has become the epiphyseal line.
