Perthes Disease (Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease) in Children

Perthes disease, also known as legg-calve-perthes disease, is a complex, often painful, condition. But as we learn more about effective perthes disease management and treatment, we can help children and families thrive while living with the condition. The pediatric experts in our Hip Preservation Program have vast experience caring for perthes disease and can recommend the best treatment option for each child.

In this video, you will learn about what causes perthes disease, perthes disease symptoms, the four perthes disease stages and much more. We also outline how perthes disease is diagnosed and discuss non-surgical and surgical treatment options for perthes disease.
