Hip Impingement of severe SCFE patients after in situ pinning causes decreased flexion and forced external rotation in flexion on 3D-CT.

After in situ pinning, patient-specific three-dimensional models showed restricted flexion and IRF-90° and forced external rotation in 90° of flexion due to early hip impingement and residual deformity in most of the severe slipped capital femoral epiphysis patients. This could help to plan subsequent hip preservation surgery, such as hip arthroscopy or femoral (derotation) osteotomy.
