METHODS: A retrospective chart review of patients treated at a single tertiary care hospital between 2000-2012 was performed. Charts were reviewed for a diagnosis of OCD of the distal femur in all skeletally immature patients (males < 16 years and females < 14 years). These were then screened for a comorbid diagnosis of ADHD. Age-matched controls with anterior knee pain without OCD were then reviewed to determine if ADHD was more common in the OCD population. Treatment and outcomes of the OCD lesions were then compared in children with and without ADHD. RESULTS: The prevalence of ADHD was 23% in patients with OCD lesions and was significantly greater than the 11% found in the anterior knee pain age-matched controls (p |
