| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Varus derotational osteotomy (VDRO) is one of the most common surgical treatments for Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, yet its long-term results have not been fully assessed. We aimed to determine the long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes following VDRO. METHODS: Forty patients (43 hips) who underwent VDRO for Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease at our institution from 1959 to 1983, and participated in a follow-up study completed 10 years earlier, were approached for the present study. Clinical examination and radiographs were evaluated. Hip status and well-being were assessed with the Harris hip score and the Short Form-36 (SF-36). RESULTS: Thirty-five patients (37 hips) participated in the study. Information regarding the need for an arthroplasty was gathered on 4 additional hips from the previous study. The mean follow-up was 42.5 years (range, 32.4 to 56.5 years), with a mean patient age of 50.2 years (range, 35.9 to 67.8 years). In total, 7 patients (7 hips; 17% of 41 hips for which information was available, including 1 hip from the original cohort of 40 patients [43 hips]), underwent a total hip arthroplasty for hip pain. Excluding patients who had undergone an arthroplasty, the mean Harris hip and SF-36 scores were 79.8 points (range, 23.1 to 100 points) and 74.8 (range, 15.1 to 100), respectively. Twenty (64.5%) of the 31 hips that had not been replaced achieved a good or excellent Harris hip score (≥80 points). Sixteen (57.1%) of 28 hips with follow-up radiographs had no, or minimal, signs of osteoarthritis. The Stulberg classification was associated with the Harris hip score, the SF-36 score, hip pain, a Trendelenburg sign, coxa magna, and the Tönnis grade. In a multivariate analysis, the Stulberg classification was the only factor associated with fair or poor outcomes (a Harris hip score of <80 points). Patients with a Stulberg class-III or IV hip had significant deterioration with respect to the Harris hip score and Tönnis grade during the 10-year period since the last follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: A long-term follow-up of patients who were operatively treated for Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease revealed that a low proportion underwent total hip arthroplasty and a relatively high proportion maintained good clinical and radiographic outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level IV. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
