Fibrous dysplasia is found predominantly in children and young adults, with ~75% of patients presenting before the age of 30 years (highest incidence between 3 and 15 years). In polyostotic form, patients usually present by 10 years old. [radiopaedia.org]

Case 132 Gout Gout is often a difficult diagnosis as it can present in so many ways. [hss.edu]

• Asymptomatic

  All patients in this series remained asymptomatic, without clinical signs, agreeing with the literature in that most are asymptomatic. Very few patients had antecedence of synovitis 4, 6. [colombiamedica.univalle.edu.co]

  If asymptomatic, it does not require treatment. [radiopaedia.org]

  Congenita is rare Tarda is common Age at diagnosis in congenita evident in the first months of life and in the Tarda form may remain asymptomatic Clinical Features (Congenita) Obliteration of the marrow ® pancytopenia, bleeding, anaemia Failure to thrive [flinders.edu.au]

  The condition itself is asymptomatic and the joints will develop normally. Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia can mimick Perthes disease as it may manifest primarily in the hips. It is a rare hereditary skeletal dysplasia. [radiologyassistant.nl]

  If asymptomatic, no treatment is needed. Sever's disease results in a painful heel and limping. It is most common in active children between 9 and 12 years. [hawaii.edu]

• Collapse

  Symptoms occur with subchondral collapse and fracture. Presentation It presents with pain in the hip or knee and causes a limp. [patient.info]

  The images show: Collapse and sclerosis of the femoral head and metaphyseal lucency. Progression to fragmentation and development of a short, broad collum. Developing coxa magna deformity. [radiologyassistant.nl]

  Areas of AVN do not have a striking degree of edema unless they have collapsed or are collapsing. In that situation, again there is subchondral fracturing that is precipitating the edema. [hss.edu]

  Instances of rapidly (within months) destructive hip disease are well recognized, often being followed by complete collapse and fragmentation (Bock et al. 1993). [rrnursingschool.biz]

• Weakness

  In the case of our patient, the Trendelenburg test was negative for pelvic tilt on either side, indicating that the cause of his limp was not due to muscle weakness, nor was the condition present long enough to result in atrophic weakness of the gluteus [hawaii.edu]

  Often children with PFFD have other bone and muscle disorders — such as malrotation, limb-length discrepancies, fibular hemimelia, joint instability and muscle weakness — that also must be addressed. [chop.edu]

  Limitation of joint motion, stiffness, weakness, flexion deformity, atrophy, contracture, and epiphyseal overgrowth have also been reported in cases of intracapsular os-teoid osteoma. [arthritisresearch.us]

• Swelling

  Irregular ossification of tarsal bones is common and, when they occur in the absence of pain or swelling, the diagnosis should be that of a normal variant. However when there is pain or swelling, Kohler's disease is present. [hawaii.edu]

  At physical examination, a moderate swelling and local warmth were observed, with pain and flexion limitation. [rb.org.br]

  Cleft palate, swelling of the ear pinna, and hitch hiker thumb were absent. [jmg.bmj.com]

  The prompt and correct diagnosis of septic hip is essential, and the films must be evaluated carefully for evidence of joint space narrowing, osteoporosis, and loss of subchondral bone in the roof of the acetabulum, a very important sign of hip joint sepsis [arthritisresearch.us]

• Failure to Thrive

  At this young age, the presentation can be rather non-specific, and infants may present only with a fever and failure to thrive. Most cases are hematogenous, and may be a sequela of a respiratory tract infection. [radiologyassistant.nl]

  Additional features in the cataract -microcephaly-failure to thrive-kyphoscoliosis syndrome (Camfak syndrome, OMIM 212540) include severe mental retardation, joint contractures, Perthes-like changes about the hips, and bilateral hip dislocation (Scott-Emuakpor [rrnursingschool.biz]

• Fracture

  Fracture The diagnosis of an occult hip fracture can be elusive. Often the initial radiographs are normal, especially in the elderly os-teoporotic patient. [arthritisresearch.us]

  Such a scenario is often found in children who have a non-displaced fracture of the tibia, known as the toddler's fracture. The toddler's fracture usually is a spiral fracture of the distal tibia without displacement. [hawaii.edu]

  More frequently present in the setting of rib fractures with a clavicle fracture as in this case, isolated clavicle fractures can also rarely present with a pneumothorax. [hss.edu]

Make informed clinical choices for each patient, from diagnosis and treatment selection through post-treatment strategies and management of complications, with new evidence-based criteria throughout. [books.google.com]

The staged nature of treatments requires ongoing monitoring and care to determine optimal timing for each phase and determine if treatments are working as planned. [chop.edu]

Management There is no consensus for the optimum treatment. The aim of treatment is to maintain the sphericity of the femoral head and the congruency of the femur-acetabulum relationship to prevent secondary degenerative arthritis. [patient.info]
