title: [Long-term results of pinning for slipped capital femoral epiphysis].
abstract: Clinical and radiological analysis of 39 hips in 32 patients treated with in situ pinning for light and non-severe (up to 78 degrees) slipped capital femoral epiphysis. The population of 21 boys and 11 girls aged 10-16 (av. 13.1) was observed in 4-27 (av. 21) years. The observation showed 18.8% very good, 18.8% good, 46.8% satisfactory, 12.5% bad results and 3.1% (1 patient) of unsuccessful treatment, according to Heyman & Herndon clinical evaluation scale. Radiological evaluation of secondary coxarthritis acc. to Boyer: 0 - 35.,8%, I - 23.1%, II - 33.4%, III - 7.7%. Slipped upper femoral epiphysis causes secondary coxarthritis. Kirschner wire pinning is good method for non-severe cases.
