Abstrakt: Background: The purpose of this study was to examine the evolution of Legg-Calvé-Perthes' disease (LCPD) among children from British Columbia (BC), Canada who were treated non-operatively and to compare the results to a previously conducted study in India.
Methods: This was a retrospective review of patients treated non-operatively for LCPD in BC between 1990 and 2006 compared with a cohort from India. Demographic and treatment information were collected from medical records. Radiographs were assigned modified Waldenstrom, Catterall, Salter-Thompson and Herring classifications and intra- and interobserver reliability were assessed. We evaluated epiphyseal extrusion (EE) and metaphyseal width (MW), and assessed radiographs using the Mose and modified Stulberg classifications.
Results: 102 hips (90 patients) had radiographs available for evaluation. 95% of the BC cohort presented as Waldenstrom stages I and II, whereas, 90% of the Indian cohort presented as IIIa. Final EE was similar for both groups (BC 26.8%, India 27.3%) and final MW was 119% in both groups. Modified Waldenstrom and Herring classifications had substantial intra- and interobserver reliability, while Salter-Thompson and Catterall classifications had moderate agreement at best. Most hips were Catterall IV (80%) and Herring C (89%) for the BC cohort compared to only 44% and 43% of Indian hips, respectively. Most hips were irregular according to the Mose classification (BC 43%, India 52%) and aspherical according to the Stulberg classification (BC 78%).
Conclusions: We found similar radiographic progression and final radiographic appearances of LCPD in India and BC though differences in the distribution of the classification systems warrant further study.
