| Video Discription | Full video article: http://surgicaltechniques.jbjs.org/content/6/1/e11 Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE), a common cause of adolescent hip pain, is a displacement of the femoral head through the proximal femoral physis. The exact etiology of SCFE is unknown, but both biochemical and biomechanical factors, including obesity, femoral retroversion, increased physeal obliquity, puberty, and endocrinopathies, play a role. Patients often present with hip, groin, or knee pain and an antalgic gait. On physical examination, obligate external rotation of the lower limb with passive hip flexion is a hallmark of SCFE. The diagnosis is confirmed with radiographs, with advanced imaging reserved for atypical presentations. Any degree of SCFE is an indication for internal stabilization. Percutaneous in situ fixation remains the gold-standard |
