Hip Disease
Disease (or Disorder) Hip (joint)

Presentation

RESULTS: Labral tears were present in 90.1% of hips, and acetabular cartilage lesions were present in 67.3%, including 41.7% with grade 3 or 4 chondromalacia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Table 1 presents clinical findings and Table 2 presents imaging findings in the 5 patients. The 5 children included 4 males and 1 female aged 9 to 48 months. All presented with acute onset of limping of 2 to 30 days' duration. [jamanetwork.com]

Entire Body System

  • Lower Extremity Pain

    Medical histories, physical examinations, and diagnostic tests were done on 97 patients with lower extremity pain to determine which signs and symptoms were the best predictors of a primary source of the pain (a hip or a spine disorder). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    For example, lumbar spinal stenosis can cause lower-extremity pains that worsen with walking and are relieved by resting (mimicking poor circulation of the lower extremities). [medicinenet.com]

  • Difficulty Walking

    walking or walking with a limp Pain that worsens with vigorous or extended activity Stiffness in the hip or limited range of motion In patients with rheumatoid arthritis or lupus, fatigue and weakness may also occur. [ortho.wustl.edu]

  • Walking with a Cane

    Some examples include: Cushioning shoe inserts can ease the pressure put on the hip joint when walking. Using a cane can provide extra stability. [arthritis-health.com]

Musculoskeletal

  • Hip Pain

    Fifty-nine patients (32 women, 27 men) with refractory hip pain, between the ages of 17 and 69 years, who were seen between January 1989 and January 1992. Hip arthroscopy. Cause of hip pain, results of physical examination and operative findings. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Knee Pain

    Unfortunately many cases of SCFE are misdiagnosed or overlooked, because the first symptom is knee pain, referred from the hip. The knee is often investigated and found to be normal. [news.liverpool.ac.uk]

    Symptoms Symptoms of Perthes' disease include tiredness and pain in the groin, thigh and sometimes in the knee. Pain can be felt in the knee only, even though the disease affects the hip. [sportsinjuryclinic.net]

  • Thigh Pain

    Five percent had pain predominantly in the thigh, 41% reported at least one episode of "giving way" of the hip and 7% had snapping of the iliotibial band. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Painful hip conditions can have an impact on the thigh bone (femur), pelvic bone, nerves, muscles, joints, ligaments, blood vessels, and internal organs. [baylorarlington.com]

    Hip and thigh pain on short-distance walks was profound. He found improvement in the hip girdle pain when lying flat or sitting. he had problems with decreased mobility of his back for years and was told he had “spondylosis” of his spine. [hopkinsarthritis.org]

  • Low Back Pain

    Spinal stenosis should be suspected in patients in whom low back pain is relieved by sitting or leaning forward and exaggerated by extension. [These symptoms are opposite of those of degenerative disc disease with nerve root impingement.] [hopkinsarthritis.org]

Neurologic

  • Waddling Gait

    Twelve patients had a waddling gait. Four patients were partially wheelchair-dependent and ten patients had limitations in their maximum walking distance. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Patients present with a waddling gait, pain, fatigue and short stature. Contrary to Perthes disease, the abnormalities are usually symmetric. The knees, ankles and wrists are usually also involved. [radiologyassistant.nl]

Treatment

Significant growth disturbances requiring surgical treatment were not observed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Following this initial study and treatment, the parents then have a choice: cast or brace treatment can be continued, however, the child must wear the cast or brace full time for a year to a year and a half. [rchsd.org]

Prognosis

The most recent studies on diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic management are reviewed here. RECENT FINDINGS: Several large studies have evaluated the prevalence and outcome of hip involvement in AS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The time of diagnosis is important for the prognosis of the disease. When the diagnosis is made before the child is six years old the prognosis is better. Younger children have better remodeling potential. [pediatric-orthopedics.com]

What is the prognosis? It is best to divide the discussion into short-term, within 5 years, and long-term prognosis, 20-40 years later. [perthesdisease.org]

Etiology

Complications of treatment for these and other pediatric hip diseases can be devastating; so much recent research concentrates on the etiology, prevention, and effects of these complications. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology speculated to be post infectious reactive arthritis. It is important to rule out a bacterial infection of the joint and bone. Child may refuse to stand and limp. There may be pain on maneuvering the hip joint. [pedclerk.bsd.uchicago.edu]

The etiology of joint pain in these patients is often from osteochondrosis, although traumatic, inflammatory, or infectious origins should be ruled out as well. [aafp.org]

Epidemiology

There have been recent articles on a number of aspects of this problem, including the epidemiology and pathology. The most recent studies on diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic management are reviewed here. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Many characteristics of their descriptive epidemiology have still to be explained, however, and it is clear that more research is needed. This content is only available as a PDF. © Oxford University Press [academic.oup.com]
