ABSTRACT

Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) is a physeal disorder of the proximal femur. Misdiagnosis and late treatment are associated with poorer outcomes. The epidemiology and delays in treatment of the disease between 1968 and 2018 were investigated in North Trinidad. The number of cases presenting annually has increased over the decades and the incidence between 2008-2018 was 2.2 cases per 100 000 per year. Almost 70% of cases were above the 95th percentile for body weight. Delay in treatment from onset of symptoms was 278 ± 258 days. Awareness of the risk factors and clinical presentation of SCFE may facilitate early diagnosis and treatment, and prevent severe hip disability in adulthood.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: desarrollar un análisis por elementos finitos de la influencia del ángulo fisis-diáfisis, la masa corporal y la actividad física con el fin de observar su predominancia en la incidencia de deslizamiento epifisiario. Métodos: se elaboraron los modelos correspondientes a las combinaciones entre cada uno de los parámetros definidos (ángulo, masa y actividad física), generando 20 casos diferentes, y se evaluaron los esfuerzos presentes a lo largo de la placa de crecimiento. Resultados: se muestra un comportamiento uniforme y similar entre cada combinación, así como un aumento en las tensiones en la medida en que se incrementaba el valor de la carga y del ángulo. Conclusiones: el esfuerzo tiende a aumentar cuando se incrementa tanto el ángulo como la masa física, lo cual sugiere que estos dos factores podrían influir de manera decisiva en el origen del deslizamiento epifisiario(AU)


Objective: to develop a finite element analysis of the influence of physis-diaphysis angle, body mass and physical activity to observe its predominance in the incidence of epiphyseal gliding. Methods: models corresponding to the combinations among each of the defined parameters (angle, mass and physical activity) were developed, generating 20 different cases and efforts present through the growth plate were evaluated. Results: a similar and uniform behaviour between each of the combinations is shown as well as an increase in tension at the same time as the value of the load and angle increases. Conclusions: effort tends to increase when there is an increment in both the angle and the physical mass what suggests that these two factors could have a decisive influence on the origin of the epiphyseal gliding(AU)


But: en s'appuyant sur la technique des éléments finis, une analyse de l'influence de l'angle physe-diaphyse, la masse corporelle et l'activité physique a été réalisée afin d'observer cette influence sur l'incidence du déplacement épiphysaire. Méthodes: des modèles correspondant aux combinaisons entre chaque paramètre défini (angle, masse et activité physique), en résultant 20 cas différents, ont été élaborés, et les efforts présents tout au long de la plaque de croissance ont été évalués. Résultats: un comportement uniforme et similaire entre chaque combinaison est montré, ainsi qu'une élevée des tensions au fur et à mesure que la valeur de la charge et l'angle augmentaient. Conclusions: l'effort tend à augmenter lorsque l'angle et la masse physique s'accroissent, ce qui indique que ces deux facteurs pourraient influer certainement sur l'origine du déplacement épiphysaire(AU)
