[Slipped capital femoral epiphysis and the "Работает" opposite hip].

The gold standard in the therapy of SCFE is the bilateral procedure in Central Europe. Several statistics demonstrate more than 30% of bilateral slippage as an average. Complications such as accidental pin perforation have become rare since the introduction of large cannulated screws. The advantage of screws as an implant is the easier removal of the device after termination of growth. Exceptionally, only the involved site may be operated on when cessation of growth is to be expected immediately. Because the disease takes place in the growing area of the femur, leg length differences up to 2 cm are not unusual and cannot always be avoided.
