大腿骨頭辷り症の治療経験

抄録

Six patients (7 hips) were treated for slipped capital femoral epiphysis.
Three of 4 patients (5 hips) who had a mild slip were treated by in situ pinning, and one patient (2 hips) underwent hormonotherapy for hypothyroidism without surgical operation. One patient with moderate slip was treated by trochanteric osteotomy, and open reduction was carried out on one patient with severe slip.
All the patients at an average follow up of 3 years and 3 months were evaluated clinically and radiologically, and satisfactory results were achieved without complications such as avascular necrosis, chondrolysis or osteoarthritis.
