ABSTRACT: Introduction
Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is the most common hip disorder in adolescent patients that can result in complex 3 dimensional (3D)-deformity and hip preservation surgery (eg, in situ pinning or proximal femoral osteotomy) is often performed. But there is little information about location of impingement.Purpose/Questions: The purpose of this study was to evaluate (1) impingement-free hip flexion and internal rotation (IR), (2) frequency of impingement in early flexion (30 to 60 degrees), and (3) location of acetabular and femoral impingement in IR in 90 degrees of flexion (IRF-90 degrees) and in maximal flexion for patients with untreated severe SCFE using preoperative 3D-computed tomography (CT) for impingement simulation.Methods
