Depending on the extent and the structures involved, there are 5 types as follows:
Here is a mnemonic to remember the different types, which actually goes by the name of the classification itself!
S - Separation through growth plate or physis
A - Above the physis
L - Lower to physis
T - Through the physis, metaphysis, epiphysis
ER-ERasure of physis ( as it is a compression fracture of growth plate)
Hope this helps!
