Introduction

Hips following in-situ pinning for slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) have an altered morphology of the proximal femur with cam type deformity. This deformity can result in femoroacetabular impingement and early joint degeneration. The modified Dunn procedure allows to reorientate the slipped epiphysis to restore hip morphology and function.

Objectives

To evaluate (1) hip pain and function, (2) 10-year survival rate and (3) subsequent surgeries and complications in hips undergoing modified Dunn procedure for SCFE.
