Perthes Disease, also known as Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease, is a condition characterized by the temporary loss of blood supply to the femoral head (the "ball" of the hip joint). This condition primarily affects children and can lead to deformity and hip joint problems if not managed appropriately.

Perthes Disease can be classified into several recognized types:

  • Initial Stage: Blood supply disruption leads to bone cell death.
  • Fragmentation Stage: The femoral head begins to break into fragments.
  • Reossification Stage: New bone forms to replace the damaged areas.
  • Remodeling Stage: The femoral head reshapes and heals.
  • Symptoms of Perthes Disease include hip pain, limping, and a reduced range of motion. The condition's progression can vary, and the long-term impact depends on factors such as age, severity, and the effectiveness of treatment.

    The exact cause of Perthes Disease is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Diagnosis often involves imaging studies such as X-rays and MRI scans.

    Treatment for Perthes Disease aims to preserve hip joint function and may include non-surgical methods such as activity modification, physical therapy, and bracing. In some cases, surgical interventions may be considered to address severe deformities.

    Ongoing research in the field of Perthes Disease focuses on refining treatment strategies and gaining a deeper understanding of its underlying causes.
