  • Title: Slipped capital femoral epiphysis, unsolved adolescent hip disorder.
    Author: Schlesinger I, Waugh T.
    Journal: Orthop Rev; 1987 Jan; 16(1):2-17. PubMed ID: 3331183.
    Abstract:
    Slipped capital femoral epiphysis remains the unsolved adolescent hip disorder. The epidemiology, clinical signs and symptoms, pathology, and radiographic findings have been well described and are reviewed. However, since we do not know the cause of the disorder, prevention is not possible and an ideal method of treatment has not yet been found. Goals of treatment, methods of treatment, as well as results and complications of treatment are discussed.
