| Core Tip |
Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease is a complex disease affecting the epiphysis of the femoral head in the paediatric population. Historically considered as an osteochondrosis, it is now being referred to as an idiopathic avascular necrosis of the femoral head in the paediatric population. Despite the etiology of the disease having been widely researched, it is still not fully understood. The major hypothesis relies on a multifactorial genesis involving mechanical, genetic, and systemic conditions. Further studies are necessary to understand the complex and multifactorial genesis of the avascular necrosis characterizing the disease. |
