Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1987
SCFE is one of the most potentially damaging conditions of the adolescent hip. The onset may be associated with minor trauma but is often insidious and may present as vague thigh or knee pain. The lateral radiograph is the most sensitive view for detection of a low-grade slip.

Valgus Slip of the Capital Femoral Epiphysis

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1978
Valgus slip of the capital femoral epiphysis, a rare entity which may be acute or chronic, occurred in a 12-year-old boy. The displacement may be associated with a pre-existing coxa valga. The patient also had a varus slip of the capital femoral epiphysis on the contralateral side. Both hips were successful treated by in situ pinning.

Valgus slipped capital femoral epiphysis

Abnormally high stresses involving the capital femoral physis were found in a series of valgus slipped capital femoral epiphysis cases. Using a single leg stance model we studied 10 hips in seven patients in which the epiphysis was lateral and posterior in relation to the femoral neck and calculated that shear stresses were high enough to be associated
