Perthes Update, JBJS, Dec. 2018

  • Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease
  • By: Paul D. Sponseller, MD
  • Perthes disease is the pediatric form of avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Compared to adult forms of the disorder, resorption and reossification are more pronounced. The femoral epiphysis is weakened during this process and may become flattened. Assessment of status and healing of the femoral head may be achieved with a serial perfusion MRI, requiring gadolinium administration and special software. This imaging technique demonstrated that revascularization of the femoral head in Perthes occurs in a “horseshoe” pattern, starting from posterior, medial, and lateral regions. Revascularization occurs at a variable rate, at a mean of 5% per month. This can help patients and their parents appreciate the long course of recovery from this condition.
    Traditional treatments for Perthes over the past half-century have focused on decreasing harmful pressure and maintaining symmetrical loading. These have had modest success. Because most patients are treated nonoperatively, it is useful to know that at 20 years of follow-up, nearly half of Perthes patients have moderate to severe osteoarthritis, especially those having a lateral column type B, B/C, or C, or those who heal with Stulberg grade 4 or 5 asphericity. Femoroacetabular impingement is also common.
    Femoral osteotomy can improve femoral head sphericity, but amounts of varus over 10° have not shown benefit. A meta-analysis of femoral and Iliac osteotomies has shown improved sphericity compared with nonoperative treatment in children older than 6 years of age. Osteotomies are most effective when performed before the advanced fragmentation phase. Combined femoral and iliac osteotomies do not provide improved results over historically published results of either osteotomy alone. Investigations into newer biological treatments aimed at decreasing resorption and increasing reossification are underway. These have promise to improve future outcomes.
    The results of eventual hip replacements in Perthes patients should be closely monitored, especially in the setting of osteotomies during childhood. A retrospective study reported a 96% hip-replacement survival rate at 15 years in young adults, though there was a 6% rate of permanent sciatic palsy.
