Compensating osteotomy at the base of the femoral neck for slipped capital femoral epiphysis.
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American Volume 1976 September
A compensating osteotomy for correction of the varus and retroversion components of severe slipped capital femoral epiphysis is presented. It is safer than a cuneiform osteotomy done through the callus of the slipped epiphysis because the line of osteotomy is distal to the major blood supply of the posterior retinaculum. The threaded Steinmann pins used for fixation sross both the osteotomy site and the epiphyseal plate, and therefore not only are the mechanical relationships restored, but further slipping is prevented also.
