ABSTRACT

Background: Slipped capital femoral epiphysis is a rare disease between 8 and 15 years of age, the sliding of the femoral head over the proximal metaphysis requires surgical approach in most cases, with different correction techniques, and significant morbidity associated with avascular necrosis. In the Hospital General Ignacio Zaragoza, the initial experience showed high morbidity, modifying recently the technique of correction of this pathology to the use of single screw.
Objective: To present functional outcomes with single transcervical screw in slipped capital femoral epiphysis at the Hospital General Ignacio Zaragoza.
Material and Methods: It is a retrospective, cross-sectional descriptive study, with systematic review of records pertaining to patients diagnosed with slipped capital femoral epiphysis and treated with single transcervical screw, and to which functional assessment was done with the Dunn and Angel classification.
Results: Twenty patients with slipped capital femoral epiphysis treated surgically whit single transcervical screw were found, 14 with good results and 6 with regular outcomes.
Conclusions: The use of the single transcervical screw in capital femoral epiphysis is an indicated technique, with favorable and functional results for patients.
