Replacement of the femoral head by open operation in severe adolescent slipping of the upper femoral epiphysis.
The stages in adolescent slipping of the upper femoral epiphysis are classified in relation to treatment. The operation of open replacement of the displaced femoral head is described, and the results of a personal series of seventy-three such operations are presented. Open replacement is excellent treatment for severe chronic slipping so long as the growth plate is still open. The greater incid...
متن کاملBilaterality in slipped upper femoral epiphysis.
The frequency of slipping and osteoarthritis of the contralateral hip was recorded in 260 patients with slipped upper femoral epiphysis between 1910 and 1960. Twenty-three of these patients (9%) had primary bilateral slipping, 32 (12%) had a contralateral slip diagnosed later during adolescence and a further 104 (40%) had signs of contralateral slipping at follow-up 16 to 66 years later, giving...
متن کاملThe Pathology of Slipped Upper Femoral Epiphysis
The weakest part ofthe epiphysial plate is the layer ofcartilage cells nearest the metaphysis. If the overlying periosteum is incised, a separation through this layer is easily produced (Haas 1917). Even if it is conceded, as shown experimentally by Harris (1950), that, in rats treated by growth hormone, broadening of this layer can diminish the cohesion of epiphysis and metaphysis, the resista...
متن کاملSlipped upper femoral epiphysis and primary juvenile hypothyroidism.
The pathogenesis of slipped upper femoral epiphysis is unknown but the condition has been linked with various endocrine disorders. Nine patients with slipped epiphyses in association with primary juvenile hypothyroidism are presented. In all patients, slipping occurred or symptoms developed in the affected hip before the hypothyroidism was diagnosed. A generalised pathology was suggested by the...
متن کاملSurgical treatment for severe slipping of the upper femoral epiphysis.
We have used a modified technique of cervical osteotomy to treat a consecutive series of 23 patients with chronic slip of the upper femoral epiphysis. It has been successful in correcting both moderate and severe deformities with a low incidence of avascular necrosis, comparable to that seen after subtrochanteric osteotomies. We describe the operative details and discuss the features which make...
