What are the surgical treatment options for managing femoroacetabular impingement secondary to slipped capital femoral epiphysis?
Surgical interventions should be considered for patients with symptomatic hip deformity secondary to SCFE to potentially prevent premature osteoarthritis.
Azegami et al. (2013) conducted a review in Femoroacetabular impingement secondary to slipped capital femoral epiphysis. Surgical treatment (e.g., arthroscopic femoral neck osteochondroplasty, surgical dislocation, osteotomy) was evaluated. Surgical procedures such as arthroscopic osteochondroplasty, surgical dislocation, and osteotomy should be considered for patients with symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement secondary to SCFE.
