Bilateral epiphyseal migration following fixation for slipped capital femoral epiphyses in a hypothyroid child.
Progression of slipped capital femoral epiphysis following in situ screw fixation typically occurs through loosening of the screw in the metaphysis. Epiphyseal migration off the screw due to physeal growth is rare. We report epiphyseal migration off bilateral screws in a child undergoing thyroid replacement therapy. Patients with mild and moderate slipped capital femoral epiphysis and endocrine...

متن کامل[Slipped capital femoral epiphysis].
Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SFCE) is a disorder of the hip, characterized by a displacement of the capital femoral epiphysis from the metaphysic through the femoral growth plate. The epiphysis slips posteriorly and inferiorly. SCFE occurs during puberty and metabolic and epidemiologic risk factors, such as obesity are frequently found. Most chronic slips are diagnosed late. Sagittal hip ...
متن کاملSlipped capital femoral epiphysis.
SCFE is the most common hip abnormality in adolescence. The subsequent development and severity of degenerative changes is related to the degree of slippage and to delay in diagnosis. Awareness of this diagnostic possibility in the population at greatest risk and knowledge of subtle and early radiographic findings will allow prompt diagnosis and treatment of SCFE. Follow-up radiographic examina...
متن کاملHormone status in patients with slipped capital femoral epiphysis.
In 15 consecutive patients with slipped capital femoral epiphysis we recorded height, weight and skeletal maturity. Sexual maturity was assessed clinically and biochemically, and Harris's hypothesis that there is an increased ratio of serum growth hormone to oestrogen was tested in comparison with 15 age and sex matched controls. We found no difference in skeletal or sexual maturity between the...
