    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Orthopedics
    • Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery

    Background:

    • Perthes' disease affects children, potentially leading to poor prognosis.
    • Innominate osteotomy is a surgical intervention for severe cases.
    • Patient selection criteria include age, Catterall grading, and femoral head uncovering.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of innominate osteotomy in children with Perthes' disease.
    • To define optimal indications and timing for innominate osteotomy.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 70 children undergoing innominate osteotomy for Perthes' disease.
    • Follow-up period ranged from 2 to 11 years (average 4.3 years).
    • Radiological outcomes assessed using Sundt criteria.

    Main Results:

    • Satisfactory clinical results were observed in the majority of patients.
    • Radiological outcomes: 54% good, 19% fair, 27% poor.
    • Postoperative stiffness occurred in 7 children, often associated with late surgery or preoperative hip issues.

    Conclusions:

    • Innominate osteotomy is indicated for children over 6 with significant femoral head involvement and uncovering.
    • Optimal surgical timing is within 8 months of presentation.
    • Careful patient selection is crucial to maximize positive outcomes and minimize complications.
