Bone Scintigraphy Prediction of Postoperative Femoral Head Avascular Necrosis in Children With Hip Trauma and Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis

BoS demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity for predicting postoperative RAVN. Clinicians should have increased suspicion of impending femoral head collapse if there is absent perfusion on BoS at 6 to 12 weeks post-op, even with evidence of preserved femoral head perfusion at the time of surgery.

Abstract

BoS demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity for predicting postoperative RAVN. Clinicians should have increased suspicion of impending femoral head collapse if there is absent perfusion on BoS at 6 to 12 weeks post-op, even with evidence of preserved femoral head perfusion at the time of surgery.
