Complication rates after the treatment of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) were retrospectively evaluated to identify possible risk factors. Twenty-six patients with SCFE underwent reduction and fixation with a single screw or multiple wires. The prevalence of avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip or chondrolysis was 14.8 and 3.6%, respectively. The degree of SCFE (P=0.050) and reduction before the seventh day after the slip (P=0.028) were associated with AVN. The risk factors for AVN were found to be a higher grade of SCFE correction and reduction between the second and the seventh day after SCFE.

Assessment of ante mortem welfare indicators and the pathophysiology of captive-bolt trauma in equids at slaughter.

There is limited research into horse slaughter, particularly ante mortem welfare, and the effectiveness of captive-bolt gun (CBG) stunning, despite this being a widely used method worldwide. To address this evidence gap and explore associations between ante and post mortem factors, the welfare of 62 horses was assessed at a commercial Italian abattoir. Animal-based measures were used to identify stress-related behaviours and stunning effectiveness.

Case: Physeal stability in slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) depends on integrity of the hypertrophic zone. This in turn is affected by imbalance between circulating growth hormones and gonadal hormones. This case describes the occurrence of SCFE in a Māori (indigenous New Zealander) transgender girl, undergoing gender-affirming therapy with a gonadal-releasing hormone analog (GnRHa).

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.

To determine whether the radiographic parameter at the epiphyseal tubercle region (peritubercle lucency sign) on the unaffected side can predict slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE). We retrospectively reviewed patients who received an initial diagnosis of unilateral SCFE between 1995 and 2020 at a pediatric hospital in a Brazilian state's capital. The patients were monitored for at least 18 months.

The management of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) has been completely transformed by modified Dunn osteotomy, a subcapital realignment osteotomy achieved through a safe surgical dislocation technique originally described by Ganz. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients with moderate to severe SCFE after modified Dunn osteotomy. A total of 15 patients (16 hips, with one bilateral case; 12 males, 3 females) aged from 10.
