Hi my son is 14 .9 years his height is 5'4" tall. bone test mentions iliac crest is partuially united with ts counterpart. will his height increase?

Probably: The average 15 yo at 5'4" would be expected to grow another 2 inches. A better assessment for growth potential is in the wrist and hand where dozens of growth centers are available for review.
