Trial summary

The incidence of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) ranges from 0.4/100,000 to 29.0/100,000 children <15 years of age. There is significant variability in incidence within racial groups and is frequently higher in lower socioeconomic classes. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Lateral Shelf Acetabuloplasty for Treatment of Older Children With Perthes Disease

The incidence of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) ranges from 0.4/100,000 to 29.0/100,000 children <15 years of age. There is significant variability in incidence within racial groups and is frequently higher in lower socioeconomic classes. The typical age at presentation ranges from 4 to 8 years (average 6.5 years).The optimal treatment goal in Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) is to obtain a spherical femoral head with good congruency to prevent or delay the onset of osteoarthritis after skeletal maturity. There is agreement that patients younger than 5years with a good remodeling capacity have a particularly excellent prognosis, irrespective of treatment.

Read the detailed description

Older children more than 8 years usually have a poor prognosis, especially without treatment. Apart from the age at diagnosis and surgery, the severity of femoral head flattening and the signs of "head at risk" are also associated with the final clinical outcome. The current surgical treatment options, including proximal femoral varus osteotomy, innominate osteotomy, lateral shelf acetabuloplasty,triple pelvic osteotomy, and Chiari pelvic osteotomy have proved to be effective in covering the femoral head within the acetabulum. To promote the coverage of the femoral head, shelf acetabuloplasty directly increases the size of the acetabulum by implanting graft bone to the lateral rim. When used as salvage surgery, it may provide relief from pain and benefit the involved hip via femoral head flattening, especially in older children. It also improves the spherical remodeling of the femoral head and acetabulum by stimulating lateral acetabular growth. Lateral shelf acetabuloplasty is able to increase the coverage of the femoral head, which is an important tissue for remodeling and preventing further femoral head deformation.

    follow up of the function of the hip after lateral shelf acetabuloplasty by harris hip score and WOMAC score

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Harris hip score

    Harris hip score is one of the most commonly used hip score for assessment of hip function.It assess the following items:Pain,support,distance walked, limp, activities-shoes and socks,stairs, public transportation, sitting,flexion deformity, abduction, adduction and external rotation range.The score of these items are summed together to get the total score. Grading according to this score as follows:

    <70= Poor ,70 - 79= Fair, 80-89=Good, 90 -100=Excellent.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Orthopedic Disorder, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Nariman Abol Oyoun, MD (01222302343, Aboloyoun@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Harris hip score (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03321422, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jan 2020.
