Green Skeletal Trauma in Children: A Comprehensive Guide to Diagnosis, Treatment, and Management
![Jese Leos](https://paragraph.deedeebook.com/author/gavin-mitchell.jpg)
Green skeletal trauma (GST) is a type of non-accidental injury that occurs when a child is subject to excessive force, such as being shaken or twisted. GST can cause a variety of injuries to the child's bones, including fractures, dislocations, and epiphyseal separations.
GST is a serious injury that can have long-term consequences for the child. If you suspect that a child has been subjected to GST, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.
GST is most commonly caused by child abuse. However, it can also occur in other situations, such as when a child is involved in a motor vehicle accident or a fall.
