Authors of recent retrospective studies have used presenting factors to establish algorithms for predicting septic arthritis of the hip in children. [doi.org]

MRI should always be performed when abnormalities are present at the clinical and sonographic examination, and when the X-ray does not allow a clear diagnosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Therefore it is suggested that blood cultures and nucleic acid amplification assay should be performed in young children presenting with irritation of the hip, even when fever, raised WBC count and a high Kocher score is not present.] [boneandspine.com]

  Transient synovitis is the self-limiting painful hip condition that occurs due to inflammation of the synovium of the hip for a transient period. [boneandspine.com]

  It is a type of inflammation of the hip. Its cause is not known. Boys are affected more often than girls. [nlm.nih.gov]

  There may be no fever or mild fever present. High fever is rare. On physical examination, the hip may be painful on passive motion and tender on palpation. [boneandspine.com]

  Results: Univariate analysis showed that fever, the C-reactive protein level, and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate were strongly associated with the final diagnosis (p < 0.05). [doi.org]

  […] and no history of fever" for transient synovitis 11. [radiopaedia.org]

  No fever. Since the day before, patient reported pain in the left "leg". Child refuses to stand up or to walk. In clinical examinations, due to the severe pain, flexion of the left hip joint is not possible. [kinderradiologie-online.de]

• Swelling

  It causes swelling of the hip joint and makes walking very difficult. The topic Coxitis Fugax you are seeking is a synonym, or alternative name, or is closely related to the medical condition Toxic Synovitis. [dovemed.com]

  Fever, reddening, swelling and severe pain – even at night - are alarm signals. Quite often the children are generally weakened, exhausted, and tired. [chiari-ortho.at]

  While infection of the knee or ankle joint may be readily apparent from swelling, tenderness, warmth and erythema, the hip joint is not as easily visualized, and the clinician must rely on indirect assessment on physical examination through range of motion [aafp.org]

• Falling

  In einer retrospektiven Studie wurde bei 65 Patienten mit Coxitis fugax in jedem Fall eine Verbreiterung des vorderen Rezessus gegenueber dem gesunden Gelenk um 2 mm und mehr registriert. [inis.iaea.org]

  Age Age group of the patient may be one of the most helpful factors in narrowing the initial differential diagnosis of limping: Toddlers (aged 1-3 y) These children are ambulatory and active but have immature gaits and are thus prone to falls, typically [emedicine.com]

  Every child lacking a clear explanation for a limp should be placed prone, with the knees flexed and the ankles falling away from the body ( Figure 3 ) so the physician can look for a difference in internal rotation between the hips. [aafp.org]

Prognosis: good Clinical improvement mostly within 2 days. Complete effusional regression within 1-2 weeks sonographically proven. If effusional regression is absent, a new differential diagnosis of Perthes disease must be taken into consideration. [radiologyteacher.com]

Etiology is unknown. Questioning the history you will often find an infection in the neck, nose, ear area. Clinical, radiological findings and serological testing are unspecific. In the arthrosonography normally you will find an effusion. [unboundmedicine.com]

Some have suggested a viral etiology; potentially related to Parvovirus B-19 and/or Herpes simplex virus 6 infections. Others have proposed a post-traumatic etiology with subsequent development of chemical synovitis. [radiopaedia.org]
