OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was to investigate whether diagnostic assessment methods used on radiographs in humans with slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) can be used in cats.
METHODS: The ventrodorsal (VD) extended-leg and VD frog-leg pelvic radiographs of 20 cats with SCFE without fully displaced femoral capital epiphyses (FCE), eight cats with fully displaced FCE and five control cats with normal pelvic anatomy were assessed by five observers on two separate occasions 3 months apart. The Klein's line and modified Klein's line were assessed on each VD extended-leg radiograph, and the S-sign was assessed on each VD extended-leg and VD frog-leg radiograph.
RESULTS: Excluding cases of fully displaced FCE, the S-sign on the VD frog-leg radiographs more accurately diagnosed SCFE than the S-sign on the VD extended-leg radiographs and the Klein's line (92.4% vs 88.8% vs 60.6%, respectively), and had the greatest sensitivity (93.9% vs 79.2% vs 30.6%, respectively). The S-sign on the VD extended-leg radiographs had greater specificity than the Klein's line and S-sign on the VD frog-leg radiographs (99.2% vs 97.9% vs 90.9%, respectively). The modified Klein's line detected SCFE in 40.2% of cases that were negative for the Klein's line.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: The S-sign in both VD extended-leg and VD frog-leg views successfully detected SCFE in cats and can be used to increase early diagnosis and treatment in cats with SCFE that have only subtle radiographic changes.
