Proximal femoral osteotomy for Perthes disease

Abstract

Proximal femoral osteotomy for Perthes disease was performed on 16 patients in Ministry of Health Ankara Hospital 2nd Orthopaedic Clinic between October 93 & December 95. Average age at the time of operation was 7.9 (range 4-12), male to female ratio was 13/3. 13 patients that had a minimum follow-up of 6 months were evaluated. Functional and radiologic evaluation was performed both pre and post operatively. Functional evaluation consisted of ROM, leg length discrepancy and subjective complaints. Radiologic evaluation consisted of Catterall evaluation of femoral head, epiphyseal in extrusion index and measurements of center edge angle of Wiberg. Average follow up was 21,3 months (range 8-34 mo). As a result we can say that best results with proximal femoral osteotomy can be obtained in patients without any femoral head deformity flattening, with good containment in abduction & internal rotation and children between the ages of 6-10 years.
