  • Title: [Damage of the upper femoral epiphysis. Long time results following trauma to the coxal end of the femur (author's transl)].
    Author: Pförringer W.
    Journal: Z Orthop Ihre Grenzgeb; 1981 Apr; 119(2):145-56. PubMed ID: 7234081.
    Abstract:
    Traumatic lesions of the coxal end of the femur during growth often lead to irreparable damage of the upper femoral epiphysis. These lesions as well as their influence to the femoral epiphysis are described and classified according to our own experiences and a study of the literature is given as well. Our own results are fractures of the neck of femur, transcapital femoral fractures, pelvic fractures and traumatic luxations during growth. For complementation of diagnostic examinations possibilities of non-traumatic damage of the epiphysis of the femoral head during growth are given.
