Legg-Calve-Perthes disease is a form of idiopathic avascular necrosis of the femoral head, evolving to classical “coxa plana”, which will lead to secondary hip arthritis. Legg-Calve-Perthes syndrome occurs most commonly in boys than in girls by a ratio of 4 to 1, commonly in the age range of 4 to 8 years. Etiological factors are represented by vascular, traumatic, constitutional, endocrine,genetical, racial and socioeconomical factors. Three phases have been described: avascular necrosis, fragmentation and healed phase. Pathogenesis is represented by two concomitant processes, located in femoral ossific nucleus: resorbtion of necrotic bone and new bone genesis. Two forms are described: Potential form – no fracture occurs in subcondral level; Real form – after the fracture occurs. Clinical signs are represented by: pain – of mild nature, usually activityrelated; lameness walking, and limited hip motion. Radiological findings: three stages are described: Initial stage – characterized by a pathognomical sign “ nail scratch”; Second stage – The bony epiphysis begins to fragment, presenting areas of increased radiolucency and radiodensity; Third stage – normal bone density returns. Alterations in the shape of the femoral head occurs. Other exams – IRM, arthrography, scintigraphy Classifications: Catteral – associating “head at risk” signs, groupe 1 or 2 and no “head at risk sign” having good prognosis, 3 or 4 plus “head at risk” signs having poor prognosis; Salter and Thompson; Herring. Evolution of long term, leading to epiphyseal deformities in severe forms. Treatment: has been based on the containment principle, being represented by orthopedic treatment or surgical treatment

Purpose of review Massive modular endoprostheses used for reconstruction of oncologic defects have historically been secured with stems, either cemented or uncemented. These implants have been subject to failure from aseptic loosening secondary to stress shielding and particle-induced osteolysis, especially in certain anatomic locations, and in many young oncology patients. To overcome these serious problems, Compress technology was invented with the goal of providing not only immediate endoprosthetic anchorage, but also ongoing compliant fixation that induces bone hypertrophy and eliminates aseptic loosening. Recent findings Compress distal femoral endoprosthetic replacements have been analyzed as part of a multiinstitutional 4-year prospective cohort study that culminated in US Food and Drug Administration clearance of the device in December, 2003. Over the past year, the first set of papers detailing the initial experience with Compress patients has been published. Summary Over the past two decades, compressive osseointegration as a means to achieve stable, long-term fixation of modular endoprostheses has moved from concept to reality. Success with distal femoral Compress implants has prompted usage in proximal femoral, proximal tibial, humeral, and intercalary locations. Expansion of orthopaedic osseointegration applications is expected to dramatically change the anchorage of primary arthroplasty and transdermal amputation prostheses.
