Legg-Calve-Perthes’ disease.

Wall EJ. Curr Opin Pediatr 1999 Feb;11(1):76-9.

The etiology, radiographic classification, and treatment of Legg-Calve-Perthes’ disease remain controversial. Several recent papers focus on these issues in an effort to provide guidance in the clinical care of Perthes’ disease. The research studied in this paper lends further support to the hypothesis of clotting abnormalities with vascular thrombosis, which seems to be the most likely etiology for Legg-Calve-Perthes’ disease. Several studies focus on use of magnetic resonance imaging for the early diagnosis and prognosis of Perthes’ disease. A few researchers whose work is featured in this paper add information on the treatment of Perthes’ disease, supporting surgical treatment for older patients with more severe disease and non-surgical treatment for younger patients with less extensive femoral head involvement.

Diagnosis and treatment of slipped capital femoral epiphysis.

Reynolds RA. Curr Opin Pediatr 1999 Feb;11(1):80-3.

Slipped capital femoral epiphysis remains a diagnostic problem despite numerous papers written on the subject. The most important factor in the diagnosis of slipped capital femoral epiphysis is suspicion by the practitioner. The history, physical examination, and radiographic imaging are important in the confirmation of the diagnosis. Imaging is the topic of 1998 with advances in the areas of ultrasound. Ultrasound may be better in experienced hands than plain radiography in the diagnosis of slipped capital femoral epiphysis. Magnetic resonance imaging is used for diagnosis of slipped capital femoral epiphysis and in the assessment of pre-slips. The magnetic resonance image can be oriented to a plane orthoganol to the plane of the physis to assess the width of the physis and to detect edema in the area of the physis.

UDSPÆNDING
(10 min)

Lie on your back. Draw the injured leg up towards your head so that the muscles in the back of the thigh become increasingly stretched. Perform the exercise with outstretched as well as bent knee. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating. The exercise can also be performed standing with the injured leg outstretched on a chair while the upper body is bent slightly forwards.

Stand with support from the back of a chair or the wall. Using your hand, bend the knee and draw the foot up and your knee slightly backwards so that the muscles in the front of the thigh become increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating. The exercise can also be done lying down. If you lie on your stomach you can draw the foot up by using a towel.

Lie on your side on a table. Bend one leg up under your body and let the other hang over the edge of the table so that the muscles in the outer side of the thigh become increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating. The exercise can also be done standing by placing the outstretched injured leg behind the good leg at the same time as bending over the injured leg.

Stand with one leg outstretched and the other slightly bent. Thrust your weight to the side over the bent leg so that the inner side of the opposite thigh becomes increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating.

Seesaw. Balance on two legs, possibly using a hand as support against the wall, balancing subsequently on one leg without support. Look straight ahead and keep knees bent.

Stand on the injured leg with your upper body bent forwards at 90 degrees. Lift the good leg in a straight line behind you. When you feel comfortable with the exercise, it can be made more difficult by closing your eyes.

Sit on a chair with elastic around the ankle, facing the elastic. Lift the leg and slowly bend and stretch the knee.

Sit on a chair with elastic attached to the ankle. Raise the leg and slowly stretch and bend the knee.

Lie on your side on a mattress or bench. Flex the lower part of the leg and stretch the upper part. It is important to completely stretch the hip. Lift the upper leg upwards with the heel pointing towards the ceiling. Gradually increase the load by attaching a sandbag to the ankle.

Lie on your back and place your hands behind your neck. Alternately move your right elbow towards left knee, and left elbow towards right knee.

Lie on your back with a ball or firm round cushion under the injured leg. Lift your backside up from the floor and stretch the healthy leg. Hold the position for a few seconds.

Stretching is carried out in the following way: stretch the muscle group for 3-5 seconds. Relax for 3-5 seconds. The muscle group should subsequently be stretched for 20 seconds. The muscle is allowed to be tender, but must not hurt. Relax for 20 seconds, after which the procedure can be repeated. The time consumed for stretching, coordination and strength training can be altered depending on the training opportunities available and individual requirements.
