Salter Harris II is a type of fracture. You need to find out what part of the bone is fractured. Medial or lateral malleolus or Bimalleolar or Trimalleolar and choose your code from there.
Salter-Harris type II (SH-II) injuries are the most frequent, accounting for up to 40% of all distal tibia fractures.[3] The mean age at the time of injury is 12.6 years, and the prevalence of concomitant fibula fractures is 63%.

Displaced Fracture: bone breaks into two or more pieces and moves out of alignment. Non-Displaced Fracture: the bone breaks but does not move out of alignment. Closed Fracture: the skin is not broken.
Tip: If a fracture isn't indicated as displaced or nondisplaced, you should default to coding it as displaced. If a fracture isn't indicated as open or closed, you should default to closed.

For the debridement of an open fracture includes only skin and subcutaneous tissue, use code 11010; debridement down to the muscle fascia and muscle, code 11011; and debridement that includes skin, muscle fascia, muscle, and bone, code 11012.
Comminuted fractures are more likely to be displaced than other types of broken bones because they always have multiple broken pieces.

Salter Harris II is a type of fracture. You need to find out what part of the bone is fractured. Medial or lateral malleolus or Bimalleolar or Trimalleolar and choose your code from there. They start at 8240 - 8249.
Salter-Harris is a type of fracture, but I think there is enough information. If you look at the Salter-Harris Classification table, you can see that a type II fx is a fracture that breaks through part of the bone at the growth plate and crack through the bone shaft as well.
