Background: Pediatric femoral neck fractures (PFNF) are rare but associated with a high rate of serious complications such as avascular femoral head necrosis (AVN). Major risk factors and prognostic tools for an AVN are still unclear. As AVN is a devastating complication, this study aims to evaluate the predictors for AVN following a PFNF.

Background: Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) is a prevalent pediatric orthopedic condition. Treatment options range from in situ pinning to various osteotomies, with the Modified Dunn procedure gaining significant attention over the past two decades. However, the suitability of this procedure for different SCFE subtypes and the risk of avascular necrosis (AVN), particularly in moderate and severe cases, remains controversial.

Aims: We evaluated the national and regional trends from 2013 to 2022, in the prevalence of Perthes' disease among adolescent males in South Korea.
Methods: This retrospective, nationwide, population-based study included a total of 3,166,669 Korean adolescent males examined at regional Military Manpower Administration (MMA) offices over ten years. Data from the MMA were retrospectively collected to measure the national and regional prevalence per 100,000 and 95% CI of Perthes' disease according to the year (1 January 2013 to 31 December 2022) and history of pelvic and/or femoral osteotomy in South Korea.

Background: Diagnosis and management of developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) in underdeveloped regions is frequently delayed, potentially impacting final outcomes. This prospective study was conducted with the aim of answering the question, "Do children <3 years at index surgery for DDH have better outcome at 5-year follow-up in comparison to children >3 years at index surgery?"
Methods: Between 2016 and 2021, all walking-age children with DDH were prospectively enrolled in the study. The study cohort was divided into 2groups: Group 1 ⩽3 years of age, and Group 2 included children >3 years old.

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head confers a risk of morbidity amongst cerebral palsy (CP) patients. Meanwhile, the proportion who develop AVN post hip reduction surgery is unclear, and the risk factors are not established. To estimate the incidence and risk factors for AVN post hip reduction surgery in CP patients, we reviewed and analysed literature from Medline, Embase, and Web of Science repositories between January 1, 1990, and August 31, 2024.
