Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 9
Abstract
Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is a common adolescent hip disorder presenting as a painful hip in the adolescent population. The major management concern is the precarious blood supply to the femoral epiphysis. A surgical procedure fulfilling the requirement was brought by Ganz as a method of safe surgical dislocation of hip into limelight. This procedure gives credential to the vascular supply of femoral head at all stages. Ganz safe surgical dislocation made possible 360 degrees’ visualization of theacetabulum and the femoral head. This also helps in anatomical realignment of femoral epiphysis over the metaphysis. In this study weanalyse the patients with slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) treated by Ganz safe surgical dislocation and subcapital realignment of epiphysis and assess the functional, radiological outcome and complications of the surgical procedure.
