Significats de femoral epiphysis en anglès

Although slipped capital femoral epiphysis is the most common disorder of the hip in adolescents, the diagnosis is often delayed.

The site of the reconstruction, the murine distal femoral epiphysis, is completely cartilaginous and avascular at this stage of development.

Background: Children who present with idiopathic slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) have an increased risk of developing bilateral disease.

Radiographs revealed a complex, multifocal and lytic lesion centered in the left proximal femoral epiphysis with involvement of the femoral neck.

Results: Juvenile hip osteoarthritis occurred as a consequence of developmental dysplasia of the hip, Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, femoral head necrosis or slipped capital femoral epiphysis.

We undertook a retrospective comparative study of all patients with an unstable slipped capital femoral epiphysis presenting to a single centre between 1998 and 2011.
