  • Title: Slipped capital femoral epiphysis technique of percutaneous in situ fixation.
    Author: Morrissy RT.
    Journal: J Pediatr Orthop; 1990; 10(3):347-50. PubMed ID: 2355077.
    Abstract:
    The technique for percutaneous in situ fixation of chronic slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is described. It is based on the anatomy of the slip. The technique utilizes a cannulated screw, which obviates the need for an incision and allows variation of the starting point of the screw depending on the degree of slippage.
